She graduated from University of Houston.[citation needed] [2] She studied at St. Mary's University, and University of Texas at San Antonio. She was assistant editor of Americas Review.[2] She teaches Mexican American and U.S. Hispanic literature as an adjunct lecturer[3] at University of Houston.[4] She currently is a television journalist extensively involved in community affairs with ABC-KTRK TV Channel 13 in Houston, Texas.[5] Married Mark Anthony Piñón[6] in 1983; they had a son, Marc-Antony Piñón,[7] in 1984.[8]
