RAFAEL ALVAREZ
won Baltimore City’s Artscape Award for the Short Story in
1994 for “The Fountain of Highlandtown.”
His latest collection of stories—six tales about the junkman
of Baltimore and his Greek lover, entitled “Orlando and Leini”—was
published in 2000 by Woodholme House of Baltimore. Publishers
Weekly called it “a rare treat that even those with a
non-adventurous palate will find delectable…” In 2001,
Alvarez left the Baltimore Sun after some 20 years on the
City Desk and joined the Seafarers
International Union
to work on ships. He is currently working on a collection called
Sea Stories. Click
