Martha Marks

Martha Marks earned her Ph.D. in Spanish literature and linguistics at Northwestern University (Illinois, United States) and subsequently served on the faculties of Northwestern University and Kalamazoo College. She enjoyed studying and teaching the novels, plays, and poetry of great Spanish and Latin American authors, and she believes that RUBIES OF THE VIPER is a better novel because of her in-depth exposure to their work.
