Excerpt: Nellie Francisca Ernestina Campobello Luna, born Maria Francisca Moya Luna (b. November 7, 1900 d. July 9, 1986), was a Mexican writer. Like her half-sister Gloria, a well-known ballet dancer, she was also known as an enthusiastic dancer and choreographer. Campobello was born in Ocampo, Durango the third of six children of Rafaela Luna, and her father was her mother's nephew Jesus Felipe Moya Luna, son of her sister Florencia. Probably this was a reason, why she concealed traces of her past. She handled also her year of birth indiscriminately as 1909 or 1913. She spent her childhood in Parral, Chihuahua and her youth in the city of Chihuahua, where she visited the Inglesa de la Colonia Rosales college. After her father was killed in the Battle of Ojinaga in 1914, her mother remarried the physician Stephen Campbell from Boston, whose last name the children assumed, and which was altered to Campobello by Nellie. In 1921, her mother died. During the revolutionary years she came to Mexico City, where she became later director of the national school of dance (Spanish: ) of the Instituto Nacional de Bellas Artes. In 1985 she suddenly disappeared, as well as her belongings and paintings of Diego Rivera and Jose Clemente Orozco. In 1998, the Commission of Human rights of the Federal District discovered that Nellie died on July 9, 1986, and that she was buried in the Progreso de Obregon Cemetery of Hidalgo. Supposedly she was kidnapped by Claudio Fuentes Figueroa or Claudio Nino Cienfuentes and his spouse Maria Cristina Belmont. M...More: http: //booksllc.net/?id=2272664
