Cover Story [Latina Magazine]

My cover story on Colombian actress Catalina Sandino Moreno for the August issue of Latina magazine is hitting stands any second now. I’m excited to read it in print.

She was in the movie Maria Full of Grace, about a drug mule who travels to New York with a belly full of heroin pellets. The role earned her an Academy Awards nomination for Best Actress and countless other accolades. And although she took two years off to be a mom, she is back in action in the latest edition of the Twilight saga, Eclipse, playing an evil Mexican vampire.

For the interview, we met up at MoMA and saw the Tim Burton career retrospective and the Marina Abramovic show. The latter was interesting in that we both took part in the exhibition by squeezing between two naked men blocking a doorway. It was awkward for about two seconds but it definitely gave us a lot to talk.

I’ll post the whole interview as soon as I can get my hands on it!
