The Ohio Hispanic Leadership Summit is the most significant event of Ohio’s Hispanic/Latino community. Leaders in education, business, politics, and culture in general will meet and discuss issues that affect Hispanics/Latinos.
The Summit is also recognizing Hispanic/Latino values by honoring distinguished Hispanic/Latino leaders, and recognizing American personalities and authorities that have contributed to the improvement of Ohio’s Hispanic/Latino community. Likewise, the Summit will serve as an exclusive space for buinesses and organizations related to the Spanish-speaking world to present their services and products to the numerous Hispanic/Latino leaders that will be invited to this important event.
We were very proud that Michael Beck, the founder and President of MidwestLatino, was one of the Ohio Hispanic Leadership Award recipients.

Many of you heard of the Fringe Fringe Festival taking place in Cincinnati JUNE 1 - 12, 2010
This year there will be Latino playwright Fernando Dovalina from Houston who is taking his new drama, "The Comfort of Anger," to the Cincinnati Fringe Festival in early June.
Maybe you can spread word about it. I can email you a press release, the fringe logo and a photo we are using as our play's logo.
Very little is written for the stage about Latinos, and often, when written by non-Latinos, we are portrayed negatively, or as the subject of ridicule.
My play is about a feisty and independent Latina, full of contradictions and frailties, but also full of strength.
His play is about a feisty and independent Latina, full of contradictions and frailties, but also full of strength.
Artist/Company Bio: The Driscoll Street Salon Theatre, a creation of playwright Fernando Dovalina, began as an informal play-reading project to develop new plays written by Houston writers. Many of the plays first read at the salon have gone on to other readings, workshops and productions. Dovalina, a member of the Dramatists Guild, has studied with Edward Albee and Stuart Ostrow and has seen several of his plays produced, most notably The Man in the Trunk and American Homefront. His drama, Meskins/Cycle of Life, Love and Death, won second place in the Nuestras Voces national playwriting competition and was read at Repertorio Espanol in midtown Manhattan. He and J.T. Buck wrote the musical, The Gospel According to Tammy Faye, which has been seen in Cincinnati, Portland, Ore., Hood River, Ore., and Houston and received an industry reading over three days at the Manhattan Theatre Club creative center in New York.

The tri-state region’s premier Latino cultural fest, is a family-friendly weekend event that showcases Latino culture, values and traditions while promoting the interaction of the Latino community within the tri-state community at large.
Souls Dying is a show that I wrote based on my personal experiences, the experiences of others, two of the most amazing Mexican films (El callejon de los Milagros and La Virgen de la Lujuria) and a show that I wrote, Amedias. I imagined sequences of those ideas unified as one in a way to create a story that takes place in the States. Souls Dying takes place in an counselor's office with a man that is looking for help - the illegal Mexican, a lonely woman -the local, and a manipulative young woman - the first generation American. The way they interact with each other becomes one story that brings to the audience impossible love between a young man and an older woman which creates conflict. The power of seduction and the manipulation of beauty brings flavor and pain at the same time. Their dreams, erotic fantasies, illusions of love, cruel reality, mystic tarot and the experience with death will open their eyes and transform their souls. They will look for a moment of happiness but they will know that everything has a price even if that means discovering who they truly are.
