Bio
I
was born in Buenos Aires in 1937. My mother, Margarita Gobic, had
come from Croatia in 1913 at the age of 3. My father, Juan Antonio
Izquierdo, came from a family who had arrived in 1806 from Barcelona.
My parents, my sister Mitzy, and my Croatian grandfather, Agustin, were
major infl uences in my life. Another major infl uence was the city of Buenos
Aires, where in 1937 one-third of the population had been born in Europe
and nearly all the rest were descendants of European immigrants. A touch
of Indian ancestry was taken for granted among those of us with Spanish
roots. So it was a mongrel city, truly cosmopolitan, in which it was impolite
to label anybody as a foreigner; Spaniards, Italians, Uruguayans, Bolivians,
and Paraguayans were viewed as locals. The most famous tango singer
Carlos Gardel had been born in Toulouse; some of the country’s best soccer
players had played for Italy in the 1934 and 1938 World Cups (and won);
American, European, and Mexican pop songs were popular alongside the
tangos. My mother sang many of these songs beautifully.
My grammar school taught in Spanish in the morning and in English in
the afternoon. It was one of the many bilingual schools in town. In 1950
I entered the Colegio Nacional de Buenos Aires, a high school attached to
the University of Buenos Aires and whose teachers included prominent intellectual
fi gures. At that time the country was drifting toward a dictatorship,
but the school remained a beacon of democracy. It instilled in me an interest
in world culture, science, literature, and above all, political decency.
I keep contact with my sister and with friends from my teenage days.
We were born in the last years of general tolerance in a country that was
soon to plunge into dictatorships and decades of political turmoil. A Paradise
lost.
