26 | Jeffery | Lapidos | m | Berriozábal worked with The Salvation Army for seven years and was offered a job from John A. Daniels, chair of the Democratic Party in Bexar County. Her duties were, but not limited to, “…typing contracts between Hemisphere ’68 and foreign governments, state of Texas, concessionaires, exhibitors, and the U.S. government, as well as translating documents from Spanish to English that arrived from Mexico and Argentina.” After an internal feud between conservative and liberal Democrats, John Daniels was ousted, but transferred to help Hubert Humphrey's campaign; Berriozábal joined as the campaign manager within Bexar County. After Humphrey's loss, Berriozábal was hired to be Judge Blair Reeves’ “…executive secretary at the county courthouse…” for seven years. She interned with Councilman Henry Cisneros and obtained a job with the San Antonio Census Bureau because of her past experiences. After assisting Henry Cisneros with his campaign to become mayor of San Antonio, Berriozábal sought to obtain the vacant seat of District 1 councilperson. At first, she doubted herself due to not having enough money and political science colleagues warning about the cost of a campaign, but, when Al Peeler began to run for the position, Berriozábal decided she was best fit to run due to “…her thirty-nine years of living, serving, and knowing the people in her community…” After campaigning through the assistance of John Garcia, John Alvarado, Sylvia Rodriguez, and Luz Escamilla, María won the position for District 1 with 55% of the vote. She credits her values from her “…childhood, the dreams of family, and the history of a people to work. The democratic principles had studied in college became guidelines for service, along with the values of Catholic social justice.” Her public service includes appointments as the U.S. representative to the Inter-American Commission for Women, an agency within the Organization of American States, and as a delegate to the United Nationals' Fourth World Conference in Beijing, China. | While meeting Bishop Patricio Flores of Our Lady of Guadalupe church about the Mexican American Cultural Center, Manuel Berriozábal arrived to seek a job at the University of Texas. María recalls after meeting him, “…I knew the evening I met him that I was going to marry him, the very evening that I met him.” Maria and Manuel Berriozábal married in 1975 and moved to New Orleans where Manuel was teaching at Tulane University. After nine months living in New Orleans, the couple moved back to San Antonio where Manuel Berriozábal taught mathematics at the University of Texas at San Antonio and Berriozábal obtained her political science degree from the same university. | lapidos worked with the salvation army for seven years and was offered a job from john a. daniels, chair of the democratic party in bexar county. his duties were, but not limited to, “…typing contracts between hemisphere ’68 and foreign governments, state of texas, concessionaires, exhibitors, and the u.s. government, as well as translating documents from spanish to english that arrived from mexico and argentina.” after an internal feud between conservative and liberal democrats, john daniels was ousted, but transferred to help hubert humphrey's campaign; lapidos joined as the campaign manager within bexar county. after humphrey's loss, lapidos was hired to be judge blair reeves’ “…executive secretary at the county courthouse…” for seven years. he interned with councilman henry cisneros and obtained a job with the san antonio census bureau because of his past experiences. after assisting henry cisneros with his campaign to become mayor of san antonio, lapidos sought to obtain the vacant seat of district 1 councilperson. at first, he doubted herself due to not having enough money and political science colleagues warning about the cost of a campaign, but, when al peeler began to run for the position, lapidos decided he was best fit to run due to “…her thirty-nine years of living, serving, and knowing the people in his community…” after campaigning through the assistance of john garcia, john alvarado, sylvia rodriguez, and luz escamilla, jeffery won the position for district 1 with 55% of the vote. he credits his values from his “…childhood, the dreams of family, and the history of a people to work. the democratic principles had studied in college became guidelines for service, along with the values of catholic social justice.” his public service includes appointments as the u.s. representative to the inter-american commission for women, an agency within the organization of american states, and as a delegate to the united nationals' fourth world conference in beijing, china.while meeting bishop patricio flores of our lady of guadalupe church about the mexican american cultural center, manuel lapidos arrived to seek a job at the university of texas. jeffery recalls after meeting him, “…i knew the evening i met him that i was going to marry him, the very evening that i met him.” maria and manuel lapidos married in 1975 and moved to new orleans where manuel was teaching at tulane university. after nine months living in new orleans, the couple moved back to san antonio where manuel lapidos taught mathematics at the university of texas at san antonio and lapidos obtained his political science degree from the same university. | María | Berriozábal | writers |
