The "Magical Realism" of Felisa Rincón Gautier

Felisa Rincón Gautier (1897-1994) became the first and only female mayor of San Juan Puerto Rico during some of the most difficult years for Nationalists between 1947 – 1969. She is perhaps best known for bringing snow on military planes to Puerto Rico in 1952, 1953 and 1954. Parque Sixto Escobar and el Parque Luis Muñoz Rivera were "bombarded" with snow in one of the most curious and fantastical events in la isla del encanto.
