Danny Trejo is an inspiration for many in the Mexican community, as well as ex-felons. In and out of jail throughout the 1960s, Trejo got his start in acting after working as a youth drug counselor. A patient asked him to accompany him to set, and Trejo was asked to be a small role in the film. From there, Trejo has over 380 movie credits and commercials. Trejo also is a successful restaurant owner, opening Trejo's Tacos in 2016 and since then adding Trejo's Cantina and Trejo's Coffee and Donuts. All three businesses have expanded to include multiple locations, as well as Trejo branded items. You can purchase hot sauces, t-shirts, coffee beans and even beer in the works.

Danny Trejo will be in the new Dora the Explorer movie as the voice of Dora's lovable sidekick Boots the Monkey. "Dora and the Lost City of Gold" hits theaters this August. Trejo is has been sober for over 50 years and turned his rough past in prison to lucrative and successful acting and business career.

They do expect this to be a sell-out event that will include a VIP reception, silent auction and more.
