 VG: Artist Biography: Zamora, Bernice
Bernice Zamora (born Bernice Ortiz) originates from south central Colorado at the foot of the East Spanish Peak, volcanic conduits she refers to in her poetry.
After earning a B.A. in three years, Zamora began her graduate studies at Stanford while simultaneously writing literary criticisms, poems and stories for an assortment of Chicano journals and teaching part-time at the University of California, Berkley.
Although she has explored many genres of writing, Zamora prefers poetry, and in fact claims she is "compelled or driven to write it." Her writing is most significantly influenced by the Chicano Movement, the attempt by members of the Chicano community to organize local and regional concerns with the common goal of empowerment.

I recommend that Zamora's work be viewed from a feminist perspective, giving special attention to the serpent motif that is present throughout her work and relating the serpent motif to the symbolism associated with goddesses.
