Silvio Horta
For adapting the Colombian soap opera, Yo soy Betty, la fea, to ABC’s Ugly Betty, Silvio Horta, an American screenwriter, and producer, will be remembered. He accepted the Golden Globe for Best Comedy Series-Ugly Betty-mentioning, “Like most of us up here, Betty is an immigrant, and The American Dream is alive and well and in reach of anybody who wants it.” The first ten Cuban-Americans began their own production company, Silent H Productions, often mispronounced as a humorous mention of their last name.
