Susie Jaramillo co-founded Encantos Media, becoming the first Latina CEO of a children's entertainment company in the U.S.
Venezuelan author and artist Susie Jaramillo longed for her U.S. born children to experience her culture. Soon, she discovered a big gap in bilingual content for children.So, she created"Canticos" Spanish for"little songs."
"I really wanted to make it easy for Latino parents to sing the songs and share their culture with their kids," she said. A report by the Government Accountability Office says Hispanics make up an estimated 12% of workers in the media industry, which includes film, TV, news and publishing. Only 3% are Latina.SUSIE JARAMILLO: We still are in a world where there's this preconceived notion that, you know, a woman's strengths are in the way she comforts, in the way she cooks, in the way she looks. Women are collaborative leaders. We listen. We build consensus.
"These people have just as much of a right to seek happiness, the pursuit of happiness in this country," said Jaramillo.
