...And Now Miguel
...And Now Miguel is a novel by Joseph Krumgold that won the Newbery Medal for excellence in American children's literature in 1954. It deals with the life of Miguel Chavez, a 12-year-old Hispanic-American shepherd from New Mexico. The novel, inspired by a documentary Krumgold had created the year before, was later adapted into a feature film by James B. Clark.
The story originated as a 1953 documentary motion picture for the United States Department of State directed by Krumgold, documenting Miguel Chavez and Pedro Chavez.
For several months during the filming, Krumgold and his wife stayed with the Chavez family in their home in Los Cordovas, New Mexico.
The book was illustrated by artist Jean Charlot. The New York Herald Tribune reviewer gave credit to Charlot: "Fully half of our pleasure in the book lay in the superb Charlot drawings."
In 1966, a narrative feature film adaptation was directed by James B. Clark and starred Pat Cardi as Miguel, with Michael Ansara, Guy Stockwell, Clu Gulager, Joe De Santis, Pilar Del Rey, Buck Taylor.
VideoHound's Golden Movie Retriever described the film as a "Plodding tale of a young boy who wants to take over as head shepherd of his family's flock".; while Richard Oulahan writing for Life in 1966 called it an "appealing, non-hokey nature gem".
Jim Hughes and Will Graveman adapted ...And Now Miguel as a musical, produced in 2001 in Denver by El Centro Su Teatro and the Arvada Center, and directed by Tony Garcia.
Miguel Chavez has dreamed of visiting the Sangre de Cristo Mountains since he was very little. This summer, he is going to work hard and pray until his father and grandfather realize that he is ready to take the trip with the rest of the older men.
