Pedro Ocharte was one of the first printers in the Americas, active from 1563 to 1592.

Life and career[edit]

Originally from RoueninFrance, Ocharte came to the City of MexicoinNew Spain around 1549. He married Maria de Figueroa, the daughter of printer Juan Pablos, and in 1563 took over the operation of Pablos's press. In 1572, Ocharte was imprisoned by the Inquisition, as one of his prints was considered heretical. Ocharte died around 1592.
