Ramón Gil Samaniego aka Ramon Novarro, was born on February 6, 1899, in Durango, Mexico. His family immigrated to the U.S. during the Mexican Revolution. He started as an extra in movies in 1917, and was eventually cast in The Prisoner of Zenda in 1922. As he gained more roles, he rose to fame, being billed as the "New Valentino." In his later years, he made cameos in film and his life was tragically cut short when he was murdered in 1968.

She initially pursued an operatic career, but made the switch to silent films after moving to New York. After moving to Hollywood, she starred in many westerns, retiring from the business in 1953. #hispanicheritage
