I am Samuel Mattos and I was born in Bahia, Brazil, in 1964. I am a professor at Santa Cruz State University (UESC)in Ilhéus, Bahia-Brazil and I coordinate an extension project named Window Museum of Visual Arts. I am a member of Grapiúna Academy of Letters, in Itabuna-Bahia, Brazil. I have studied Literature at University of California Los Angeles (UCLA). I have written “Música na Rua e outros poemas”, EDITUS (2008/2014), “Apolônio, o multiplicador”, EDITUS, 2011/2012/2018); “Um criador, muitas criaturas: representações da mulher na obra musical de Chico Buarque”, Via Literarum, 2021, and “Arte e Cultura na UESC”, Via Literarum, 2023. Every semester, I create a Brazilian popular music collection for co-workers and friends, just for fun. I also love Jazz, Blues, Reggae, R & B, Salsa and many other rhythms.
