John-Michael Rivera Awarded by the Carolyn Woodward Pope Endowment for Undocuments

September 10, 2021

We are thrilled to announce that John-Michael Rivera was awarded by the Carolyn Woodward Pope Endowment for UNDOCUMENTS! This award was established in 1999 to recognize University of Colorado Boulder English Department faculty, and comes with a cash prize for the author.

UNDOCUMENTS is an expansive multi-genre exploration of Greater Mexican documentality that reveals the complicated ways all Latinx peoples, including the author, become objectified within cultures. John-Michael Rivera remixes the Florentine Codex and other documents as he takes an intense look at the anxieties and physical detriments tied to immigration.

John-Michael Rivera is an associate professor and writer at the University of Colorado Boulder, where he serves as director of the Program for Writing and Rhetoric. He has published memoir, creative nonfiction, poetry, and scholarship. He is the curator of El Laboratorio, a literary space for Latinx writers, and was co-founder of Shadowbox Magazine, a literary journal for creative nonfiction.
