Fueled by a lifelong love of literature, Gonzales has
devoted himself to providing people with more access to
literature. When he moved to Marysville, Kansas, after a
successful career as a barber in Los Angeles, he noticed
a widespread hunger for reading in the community. He
helped customers read books by opening a library with a
collection of 500 books inside his barbershop in 1990.
Even though many people wanted to read books, they
had nowhere to turn, said Gonzales. His efforts came to
be recognized nationwide and he won the Livingstone
Award in 2003. Mr. Gonzales has helped people find a
shelter for their spirits, wrote the Livingstone
Committee.
