Cassiano Ricardo

Cassiano Ricardo was born on 26 July 1895 at São José dos Campos, in the state of São Paulo. A journalist and poet, he was in the mid-1920s one of the figures of the nationalist Verde-Amarelo group, alongside Menotti del Picchia and Plínio Salgado. Elected in 1937 to the Brazilian Academy of Letters, he directed the daily A Manhã in the early 1940s, under the Estado Novo. In the 1960s his poetry came closer to concrete poetry. He died in Rio on 14 January 1974.
