Esther Martinez, also known as Estefanita Martinez (1912 – September 16, 2006) was a linguist and storyteller for the Tewa people of New Mexico. Martinez was given the Tewa name P’oe Tsáwä (meaning Blue Water) and was also known by various affectionate names, including "Ko'oe Esther" and "Aunt Esther." She lived to be 94 years old, and was known for her commitment to preserving the Tewa language. Her San Juan Pueblo Tewa Dictionary was published in 1982.
She does not have an Ordinary People Change the World book, but she will appear in an episode of Xavier Riddle and the Secret Museum called I Am Esther Martinez[1].
She is voiced by Penelope Martin.
