Carlos Pintado (born 1974 in Cuba) is a Cuban–American writer, playwright and award-winning poet who immigrated to the United States in the early 90s. He received the prestigious 2014 Paz Prize for Poetry for his book ''Nine coins/Nueve Monedas'' awarded by the National Poetry Series and published in a bilingual edition by Akashic Press. His book ''Autorretrato en azul'' received the Sant Jordi's International Prize for Poetry and his ''El azar y los tesoros'' was one of the finalists for Adonais Prize in 2008. He also contributed to ''The exile Experience: a journey to freedom'', coordinated by Cuban American music producer Emilio Estefan. In September 2015,The New York Times Magazine published his poem "The moon", selected by US Poet Laureate Natasha Trethewey. In praising Pintado’s work, United States' Presidential Inaugural poet Richard Blanco has written: “The urgency and presence in Pintado’s poems feel as if the poet’s very life depended on writing them. They are possessed by a unique, intangible quality that arrests the reader and commands attention. His work is intimate yet boundless, moving easily between form and free verse, prose poems and long poems, whether capturing the everyday streets of Miami Beach or leading us into the mythic and mystical worlds of his imagination.” In 2012, Carlos Pintado was one the judges of Gibara's Film Festival, along with Spanish singer and film maker Luis Eduardo Aute. ==Biography== In 2010, the South Beach Music Ensemble released the "Quintet on Carlos Pintado Poems" a piano and string quintet based on his poems with concerts throughout United States led by the American composer Pamela Marshall and director Michael Andrews. The author has been an invited artist to the White Night or Sleepless Night performing among several musicians and artists of recognized artistic career. Pintado practices Nichiren Buddhism since 2004 and is also a member of the worldwide Buddhist association Soka Gakkai International. ==Published works== * La Seducción del Minotauro (short stories, 2000) * Los bosques de Mortefontaine (poetry, 2007) * Habitación a oscuras (Sant Jordi International Prize for poetry, 2007) * Los Nombres de la noche (poetry, 2008) * El azar y los tesoros (poetry, 2008) * El unicornio y otros poemas (Poetry Anthology, editorial Ruinas Circulares, Argentina, 2011) * Cuaderno del falso amor impuro (Editorial Tigres de Papel, Madrid, Spain, 2014) * Taubenschlag (Editorial Capiro, Santa Clara, Cuba, 2015). * La sed del último que mira (Sudaquia Editores, New York,2015). * Nine coins/Nueve monedas (Winner of The National Poetry Series' 2014 Paz Prize for Poetry.
