RITA MILLS, owner of The Book Connection, has three passions—the First Amendment, books, and literacy. It was in the early ‘70s that ink took-up permanent residence in Rita’s blood with her 20-year stint at a major metropolitan newspaper, The Houston Post. In 1993, she shifted gears and moved into another career direction when she joined the staff of Arte Publico Press at the University of Houston as Managing Editor. Rita was instrumental in the creation of Arte Publico’s children’s picture book imprint, Pinata Books. Learn More
