Chicanos y Chicanas Prominentes.
Wood, Theodore E. B.
A sequel to "A Portfolio of Outstanding Americans of Mexican Descent", this portfolio contains 24 portraits and biographical sketches in both English and Spanish of Mexican American personalities who have become familiar as emergent figures in various sectors of public life. Featured are several women who have made themselves audible as activists. Taken together, these men and women form a selective portrait of La Raza. The personalities are: Frank Angel, Jr., Romana A. Banuelos, Joe J. Bernal, Edward L. Barrera, Vikki Carr, Jose Andres Chacon, Patrick F. Flores, Jose Angel Gutierrez, Ronaldo Henriquez, Mari-Luci Jaramillo, Nancy Lopez, Roberto A. Mondragon, Luis Nogales, Graciela Gil Olivares, Philip D. Ortego, Donald N. Pacheco, James Plunkett, Henry M. Ramirez, Ruben Salazar, Phillip V. Sanchez, Reies Lopez Tijerina, Irene Tovar, Daniel T. Valdes, and Jose Ramos Valdez. Printed on heavy paper stock (11" x 14") and drawn in black and white, the prints are suitable for display purposes. The prints can be used as the basis of study and further inquiry into the accomplishments of American's Hispanic citizens, or in the teaching of both English as a second language and Spanish as a foreign language.
