" Soy La Frida" by Alejandra Perez /Collaboration with Come Bien Books

Soy la Frida! My parents gave me the name of “Magdalena Carmen Frieda Calderon”. Born in Coyacan, Mexico on July 6,1907 en carne y hueso. Aunque en corazon yo naci el 17 de Julio del 1910. The day the Mexican Revolution began. I’ve had two major accidents in my life. One was the trolley and the second was Diego Rivera. I’ve fought against my communist comrades and resisted the struggle. I’ve loved and lost many. Mis pinturas me conocen mas que nadien. Today July 13, 1954 I’ll spread my wings and hope to never come back...
