Description
Listeners this week we're back with Manny Padilla.
Manny wrote his first short story when he was 8-years-old and has been writing ever since. Despite his parents' protests ("You'll starve to death!"), Manny earned a journalism degree, and has since worked consistently in the media and publishing fields with over 36 years of award-winning writing experience, working as a newspaper reporter and editor; marketing, public relations and advertising professional; and public speaker.
Manny "retired" from his position as Vice President of Marketing and Business Development for Los Angeles Police Federal Credit Union in 2019. There, he was responsible for extending the not-for-profit financial institution’s work within the Los Angeles Police and Sheriff’s departments, as well as law enforcement communities.
Prior to that, Manny held roles as First Vice President of Marketing, Metrocities Mortgage; Marketing Communications Manager, The California Endowment; Vice President of Marketing, City National Bank; and Writer/Editor/ Supervisor, Los Angeles Daily News Special Sections.
In 2021, Manny added the title of "author" to his resume, with the creation of his debut novel, "Coconut."
During this episode we talked about:
Growing up third generation Mexican American
How he decided to make writing his career.
The changes that have happened to the Latinx experience
Mental health and the dichotomy of the Latinx experience in the 70s
Profiling
Bad bosses
Supporting each other
