On 24th March 1941 Carmen Miranda was invited to imprint her hand and heel marks in the concrete outside Grauman’s Chinese Theatre, the first Latin American to do so [1604 x 2016]
I love Carmen, but it should be pointed out that she was born in Portugal and moved to Rio when she was a child.
That said, Carmen and Nelson Rockefeller are probably more responsible for creating/transforming the concept of Latin American than anybody else since Napoleon III so while she’s a European, she is also definitely a Latina.
