Latino Luminary RIP

Rest In Peace

Ricardo Gonzalo Pedro Montalbán Merino

(November 25, 1920 – January 14, 2009)
One More Luminary Latino Joins the Great Pantheon of Champions.


Suave and Sophisticated, Montalban worked his Latin Charm on American Culture at a Time when being Brown was Practically Mud.


Man of Mucho Talents, Forever Imitated, Never Duplicated.

Ladies Man Extraordinaire Macho Lover

No Little Blue Pill Needed.
Even into his Silver Years, The Latin Lover glowed with Virile Confidence.


It was no small feat to make it big in Old Hollywood while Being heavily Hispanic
When You are Good, It Looks Easy.


And Now We Say Adios to a Great Hispanic Hombre.

May Your Heaven Be a Thousand Times More Suave than Corinthian Leather.


Muchas Gracias for you Sly Magnetic Smiles and Great Performances.
Ride Like the Wind.
