Luis Valdez founded El Teatro Campesino during the 1965 California grape strike to dramatize the cause of the farm workers. Over time, his troupe has set the standard for Hispanic theater, touring internationally and training a new generation of actors, directors, and producers, while continuing to speak for the disenfranchised.
