This beautiful face and exquisite voice is the first known woman singer from the State of Texas ... Who is it..?
In the picture Lydia Mendoza, known as the "Lark of the Border,"  born in Houston in 1916. She also recorded with his sister Maria and Juanita in a group called The Mendoza Sisters. Though Lydia was the first known as a Texan-American singer, Chelo Silva as a texan born bolerist ( born in Brownsville in 1922) was too one of the women pioneer in radio.
