Family Tree
The illustrious House of Montalbán boasts a long and distinguished pedigree of illustrious performers gracing the silver screen. The late, great Ricardo Montalbán was no exception, embodying Latin elegance and grace with an effortless charm and reinvigorating the Rudolph Valentino / Ramon Novarro 'Latin Lover' style in Hollywood. As a noted mover and shaker within the acting community, Ricardo fought to upscale the Mexican image in Hollywood and pave the way for more minority actors. His legacy is continued and upheld by Carlos Montalbán, born on June 5, 1903 in Mexico City, and notable for his roles in Bananas (1971) and The Harder They Fall (1956). Carlos passed away on March 28, 1991 in New York City, leaving behind a legacy of artistry and activism that will forever remain as a pillar of the House of Montalbán.
