Mi madre fue enviada en 1916 a Nueva York a estudiar enfermería. Allí conoció a mi padre, el ingeniero Juan Francisco Urquidi, nacido en la ciudad de México, de familia chihuahuense, quien después de episodios políticos prodemocráticos al lado de Francisco 1. Madero, tuvo que ir en 1913 al exilio, al ser éste asesinado por órdenes de Victoriano Huerta. Participó después en la representación del gobierno de Venustiano Carranza en Washington, y al fin se trasladó a Nueva York, donde fundó una revista mensual en español. Conoció a mi madre porque ella, siendo bilingüe, era asignada en su hospital a atender a pacientes de habla española; un amigo mexicano común los presentó. Casaron en Filadelfia en 1917; en 1918, recién firmado el armisticio en Compiégne, y a invitación del recién nombrado Ministro de México en Francia, Alberto J. Pani emprendieron el viaje a París. En el suburbio de Neuilly, en mayo de 1919, abrí los ojos por primera vez. Mi padre tuvo el cuidado, conforme a sus privilegios diplomáticos, de garantizar legalmente mi nacionalidad mexicana.

His brother Juan Francisco worked at the Mexican Legation in London for several years during the 1920s when Mexico was seeking Great Britain's recognition of its government. Juan Francisco became the secretary and interpreter for the Mexican American Commission of 1923, which met to resolve differences between Mexico and Washington. Towards the end of 1923 he became the Enviado Extraordinario and Ministro Plenipotenciario of Mexico in Colombia and in 1929 he was posted as Ambassador to El Salvador.
