Raised in East Los Angeles, Hernandez-Sametier has been a teacher, counselor and principal in some of the most difficult urban and rural school environments across the U.S. and Indian Country. He recently served as a therapist for high-trauma, unaccompanied minors detained by U.S. immigration. In 2006, he was honored as the "national educator of the year" by the American Association of Hispanics in Higher Education. A musician since childhood, the author still performs professionally. His first novel, "The Music of Jimmy Ojotriste" was drawn from memories of the East L.A. mariachis of his childhood.
