They Knew How to Move Mountains
As I thank those who are congratulating HispanicAd.com on our 25th Anniversary, I’m taking this opportunity to celebrate the lives of some industry pioneers who have left us over the last few days. People like Venezuelan TV mogul Gustavo Cisneros. People like Omar Marchant. People like Carlos Barba. True giants. My thanks to Combined Sources for the recap obituaries of Marchant and Barba.

Are we daring ourselves to advance and defend our Hispanic Market as it deserves? Reading the stories that follow, I hope, will make us think. — Gene Bryan - CEO / HispanicAd
