About Myself:
For more than 30 years, Ruben Tapia has been the volunteer host and producer of Enfoque Latino, a one-hour Spanish-language program providing news and analysis on topics of interest to Latino audiences in the Los Angeles area and Southern California. Enfoque Latino airs every week on KPFK, a listener-sponsored radio station. In the late 1980's, Mr. Tapia began contributing to Radio Bilingüe's national news and information services, helping produce a live coverage of Mexico's momentous presidential elections in 1988 and eyewitness reporting of the Los Angeles revolt in 1992. Currently, Mr. Tapia serves as a producer for Radio Bilingüe's Edición Semanaria, a nationally-distributed news journal. For his work, he has been recognized with a number of awards, including a Golden Mike Award in 2018, a California State Assembly recognition in 2010, and a New America Media reporting award in 2003.
