Born June 25, 1954, to Celina and Juan Sotomayor, “She was ‘a child with dreams,’ as she once said, the little girl who learned at 8 that she had diabetes, who lost her father when she was 9, who devoured Nancy Drew books and spent Saturday nights playing bingo, marking the cards with chickpeas, in the squat red brick housing projects of the East Bronx” (Stolberg 1).
