                       Tuesday, November 2, 2021

  Mr. CORREA. Madam Speaker, I rise today to honor Humberto Luna.
  Describing Humberto Luna is talking about perseverance, dedication, 
passion, optimism, simplicity and good humor, same that has always 
characterized him throughout his brilliant career not only as a radio 
host, but also as an actor and television host.
  This talented Zacatecano, from a very young age, showed great 
concerns about the Radio. He graduated from La National School of Voice 
Talents of Mexico, obtaining their Certificate of Aptitude granted by 
the Secretary of Public Education through the General Directorate of 
Audiovisual Education as Announcer, Chronicler and News Commentator in 
accordance with articles 84, 85 and 86 of the Federal Law on Radio and 
TV.
  And in 1970 he arrived in Los Angeles California full of illusions to 
follow his passion for Radio that has led him without a doubt to become 
one of the most popular Personalities in Southern California for 
imposing his own creative brand and staying on the air in the 
audience's liking for more than four decades on various radio stations 
in the American Union.
  As a star of radio entertainment, he has also participated in the 
magical world of cinema, with 27 films, on Television he co-presented 
on ``Hablemos de Cine'' one of the most successful programs of the 
Cadena Univision, on Telemundo he was the host of his own Show ``La 
Hora Lunatica'' televised internationally.
  And on October 12, 1990, his name was recorded for posterity on the 
walk of fame of Hollywood making him the first hispanic announcer to 
obtain one of the privileged stars that the city awards to foreign 
personalities.
  There are many recognitions that for almost half a century of 
delivery have been granted, in 1991 the Hispanic Business Magazine 
named him ``One of the 100 Most Influential Hispanics in United 
States'' and is currently on the air on an important radio network.
  I ask my colleagues to join me in honoring and celebrating Humberto 
Luna.
