Ernesto Galarza (1905-1984) Ernesto Galarza was born in the town of Jalcocotan, an Indian village in western Mexico's Sierra Madres. When he was seven years old, Ernesto Galarza moved from Mexico to California. There, his family harvested crops in the fields of Sacramento and struggled to make ends meet. Galarza learned English quickly and won a scholarship for college. After earning his bachelor's degree he received his master's degree from Stanford and his doctorate from Columbia.
Ernesto Galarza (1905-1984) He eventually became a master teacher and writer. Barrio Boy (1971), his most successful book, tells the story of his childhood in California. Because of his background, he became an influential union leader who fought tirelessly for the rights of American and Mexican farm workers. From 1936 to 1947, Galarza served as chief of the Division of Labor and Social Information for the Pan-American Union, dealing with education and labor in Latin America. When he returned to California, he worked to gain rights for farm workers.
