"Fuentes served as Mexico's ambassador to France from 1975 to 1977, resigning in protest of former President Gustavo Díaz Ordaz's appointment as ambassador to Spain. He also taught at Cambridge, Brown, Princeton, Harvard, Columbia, University of Pennsylvania, Dartmouth, and Cornell. His friends included Luis Buñuel, William Styron, Friedrich Dürrenmatt, and sociologist C. Wright Mills, to whom he dedicated his book The Death of Artemio Cruz. Once good friends with Nobel-winning Mexican poet Octavio Paz, Fuentes became estranged from him in the 1980s in a disagreement over the Sandinistas, whom Fuentes supported. In 1988, Paz's magazine Vuelta carried an attack by Enrique Krauze on the legitimacy of Fuentes' Mexican identity, opening a feud between Paz and Fuentes that lasted until Paz's 1998 death. In 1989, he was the subject of a full-length PBS television documentary, "Crossing Borders: The Journey of Carlos Fuentes," which also aired in Europe and was broadcast repeatedly in Mexico.

"Before the smog, Los Angeles represented a sunny, carefree paradise where the living was easy for generations of Americans who followed Horace Greeley's advice to 'Go West, young man!' Its appeal was even more intense in the 1930s to Europeans with more urgent reasons to look westward. From the time of Hitler's coming to power in 1933, there was a steady stream of liberal and Jewish Germans -- among them the cream of the intelligentsia -- who needed a rallying point to build a New Weimar and preserve German culture from the holocaust. Los Angeles filled the bill, and as Nazi Germany gradually overran the rest of Europe, the stream of emigres became a flood. Austrians, Czechs, French, Scandinavians, British all tended to find themselves temporarily or permanently marooned in southern California. John Russell Taylor, biographer of one of the most distinguished emigres, Alfred Hitchcock, chronicles in his new book the varied fortunes of this varied group. Not only did such leading figures of world cinema as Hitchcock, Fritz Lang, Jean Renoir and Luis Bunuel all come to Hollywood to work -- as best they could in these alien surroundings -- but Los Angeles, alleged cultural desert, also offered a home to such writers as Thomas Mann, Aldous Huxley, Franz Werfel, Christopher Isherwood, Antione de Saint-Exupery and Bertolt Brecht and such composers as Schoenberg and Stravinsky, as well as a host of designers, actors, and musicians. The story of how they came to terms (or did not) with their new environment, the Americans and one another is frequently bizarre, often funny and sometimes tragic. It is also a long overdue account of an important, neglected, imperfectly understood episode in the cultural history of twentieth-century America., Henry Holt & Co, 1983, 5, -Fourth Estate (1994)-.
