Richard Blanco

Richard Blanco is the poet who has been chosen to read a poem at the Inaguration on Monday.  I did not know much about him except that he was from Cuba. He writes about his family and in the poem at the end of this piece he tells of the way his family watched Miss America.  It brought tears to my eyes and I wanted to share.  I can't wait to hear his poem.
