Throughout Hispanic Heritage Month, the AFL-CIO will be profiling leaders and activists to spotlight the diverse contributions Hispanics and Latinos have made to the labor movement. Today's profile features Carolina Hernandez of IATSE.

Carolina Hernandez is the principal set costumer on the new television series “Lawmen: Bass Reeves.” As a seven-year member of Theatrical Stage Employees (IATSE) Local 484, she dedicates her spare time volunteering at local food banks and has petitioned the Texas House for better film incentive programs to attract more union films to the state.
