“Learning the craft as an actor in Los Angeles is a very hard thing to do, in my opinion. We all come from a certain world and when you start learning the craft, you need material to read/study that you can relate to. We do not have too many Latino writers on the West Coast that I was able to relate to (or at least, I didn't know at the time). I came from the streets, so the most published authors had no relation to my world. As soon as I picked up Pinero & Guirgis, it was all over. It was my world, just in a different location. They cracked me open inside and out.” KnowsWorldNeedsDifferentHardAbleCertainActorsOpinionStudyStreetsMaterialsRelationWestCraftsRelateThings To DoOver ItLos AngelesLocationCoastLatinoCrackedHard ThingsWest Coast Author:Richard Cabral
“There's so many ways to be a voice and that's what I'm figuring out. Being an artist, being an actor, it's about telling stories that could heal, that could open up discussion that could make the community better. There are many (Latino) stories that need to be told and haven't been told right. If I could help be that voice then that's what I'm going to do, because this is a reality for me.” IfsWayNeedsHelpingStoriesRealityArtistActorsVoiceCommunityHavensHealDiscussionIf I CouldLatinoBeing An ArtistTelling Stories Author:Richard Cabral
