Nancy Glenn-Nieto (born September 20, 1944) is an American-Mexican actress, model, and Fine art painter. Perhaps best known as a model and an actress in Mexico City, however, her art work has become highly collectable. She is the widow of the late Mexican Oaxacan painter Rodolfo Nieto. ==Early life== Born Nancy Hoskins in Oklahoma to Howard Hoskins (March 1, 1911 – 1995), an engineer for Douglas Aircraft Company, and Mary Hoskins, (July 29, 1922 – March 6, 2014) a school teacher; when a child she moved with her family to Southern California. During her girlhood she spent a good deal of time with her maternal grandmother Herminia Matuse Harrel (May 7, 1889 – January 23, 1995) who was born and raised in Las Cruces, Chihuahua, Mexico. Nancy became enchanted with her grandmother’s stories that created colorful contrasting views of a country full of culture, music, and art, but politically on the brink of upheaval with individuals such as Porfirio Diaz, Pancho Villa and Emiliano Zapata and how her grandmother escaped the Mexican Revolution of 1911 crossing the Rio Grande into the safety of Texas. Growing up in a family of two cultures, Nancy integrated both with equal value into her personal perspective. Her interest in art began when she was a little girl. She liked to draw pictures of the neighborhood dogs and cats, often bringing them into her home. Her mother remembered this time with “Nancy was always bringing a stray cat or dog home. She’d feed them, and soon they became part of our family.”〔Interview with the writer Sterling Saint James, April 2001.〕 During her High School years, her first job was painting Christmas scenes on the local merchants shop window. While Nancy liked to paint and draw, she also liked the attention she got when she won the Miss Los Angeles beauty contest. That same year at 23 years old she entered the Queen of the Pacific Beauty Pageant held in Melbourne, Australia as the representative from California.〔The Tuscaloosa News, March 15, 1968, p. 36. “Nancy Hoskins, better known as the reigning Miss California decorates the scene in Melbourne, Australia. She’s an entrant in the Queen of the Pacific contest.”〕〔The Modesto Bee & New Herald, June 30, 1963, Sunday, pg. 1〕
