Latino Leaders: The National Magazine of the Successful American Latino, June-July, 2006 by Lourdes Cabrera

I read with much interest your interview with Roberto Cabezuela, and was very impressed with his simple, gentlemanly honesty. I couldn't wait to watch the show (PBS' Texas Ranch House), though I wondered at first if he wasn't really an actor disguised as a ranch hand.

When the show finally aired, it didn't disappoint. Not only was he or any of the other cast members "regular Joes and Janes", but I also got to enjoy a good dose of history about hardship and survival in my home state of Texas. I was pleasantly surprised at the quality of the program and at the authenticity of the production and the cast members.

Thank you for introducing us to a great guy (Robby) and for giving us a heads-up on this incredible show. As usual, you guys did a great job, and I can't wait to see the next issue!

P.S. How can I get in touch with Robby?
