Myrna Salazar, who co-founded the Chicago Latino Theater Alliance (CLATA) and served as its executive director, has died suddenly at 75, the alliance announced Thursday.
“To say that Myrna was a force of nature would be an understatement. She has been a leader, advocate, change maker and a strong voice for the Latino community on issues from education to the arts,” said Marty Castro, CLATA board president and CEO of Casa Central.
