Latinas

Builders whose stories cross borders and industries.

19 profiles, published in 2 installments. Every profile is fact-checked against its sources, and every source opens inside the magazine.

Nineteen profiles, in two installments, of Latina builders whose stories cross borders and industries.

Part one features Adriana Gallardo, Arcilia Acosta, Beatriz Manetta and Carmen Castillo. Part two features Linda Alvarado, Maria Rios, Martha de la Torre and Patricia Pliego Stout. The industries vary; so do the countries their stories begin in.

What the nineteen share is the build itself — companies started, grown and owned. Each profile is told in its own facts and checked against its sources, and together they make one of the magazine's widest-ranging lists.
