Pablo Armando Fernández (2 March 1930 – 3 November 2021) was a Cuban poet, novelist, essayist and playwright. In 1996, he was awarded the National Prize for Literature, Cuba's national literary award and most important award of its type.[1]
Born in the Oriente Province, Fernández lived in the United States from 1945 to 1959. He attended Columbia University.[2] After the Cuban Revolution he moved back to the island. His early works were personal, but he later wrote on social matters. Fernández has been described as follows: "He has a movie poster face with a full mane of white hair and a Rasputin like goatee, like a more handsome Uncle Ben. Since his return shortly after the revolutionary victory he has been in and out of favor, then in again. Fernández has settled comfortably into a position of responsibility and respect. He is one of the OWs, the Official Writers."[3]
