Rick --
First and foremost, thanks for the wonderful interview today. Your insight into boxing is fantastic, and so too is your passion.
As for Frank Baltazar, that's great news. I'm looking forward to getting him -- and, hopefully, Hap Navarro -- on camera soon.
Please let me know how I should proceed. And if you get other notions, don't hesitate to let me know.
Also, thanks to your wife for being a good sport.
Best,
Alan
Alan . . .
It was great talking with you today and I hope some of what I shared can be of use to your project. I spoke with Frank Baltazar and he would be open to have you interview him.
Frank is a treasure trove of Los Angeles and Latinio boxing history.
He was running the Jr. Golden Gloves tourney in L.A. when Albert Davila, the Sandovals, etc. were competeing and can open doors to the true history of the great Latinos who came out of East L.A. You will get some true, unbiased history from Frank.
I will E-mail Hap Navarro tonight, and see if there is a possibility of your interviewing him. He promoted guys like the great Enrique Bolanos, Art Aragon, Manuel Ortiz, Keeny Teran, etc.
I'll be in touch. Good luck with your film, one I consider very important, and one that won't be possible in the near future (the history is dying with those who were involved).
Take care,
Rick Farris
