In 2004, the MacArthur Foundation recognized his contribution to literacy and Orange County\u2019s Latino community with one of its &#8220;genius grant&#8221; fellowships.<\/p>\n<p>Anyone who operates an independent bookstore will tell you it\u2019s tough going, but Martinez stayed afloat for a long time all on his own. It became a de rigueur stop on the Latino literary circuit, with all sorts of luminaries stopping by for readings over the years, including Isabel Allende, Sandra Cisneros, Gary Soto and Rudolfo Anaya.<\/p>\n<p>Now, it won\u2019t be so hard. Martinez has a new partner: nearby Chapman University.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOne major difference is instead of one cabeza [head] we now have many cabezas contributing to the success of the store,\u201d Martinez told The Times.<\/p>\n<p>The newly renovated store on Broadway in Santa Ana was rechristened \u201cLibreria Martinez de Chapman University\u201d on Saturday at a ceremony attended by Santa Ana Mayor Miguel Pulido, Chapman University President James L. Doti and Congresswoman Loretta Sanchez (D-Anaheim) among others, along with &#8220;lots of our loyal customers,&#8221; Martinez said.<br \/>\nLibreria Martinez has always been an essential O.C. cultural institution. Now it\u2019s a \u201cnon-profit education venture\u201d in alliance with Chapman University, which will help organize literacy and tutoring programs at the store. All profits will be funneled back into educational programs at the store, the university said.<\/p>\n<p>PDF File Link:<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/blogs.chapman.edu\/education\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/83\/2013\/07\/Bookseller-barber-and-genius-Rubin-Martinez-finds-new-partner-LA-Times-Oct-29-2012.pdf\">Bookseller &#8211;
