"Subway Tenor", a Short Bio of Aspiring Opera Singer Roberto Esquivelzeta

Roberto Esquivelzeta is an aspiring opera singer living with his wife and two children in Harlem. Before moving to the City a few years ago, he was a pilot for a large Mexican airline, but after being affected by massive layoffs, Esquivelzeta now hopes to land in Carnegie Hall. He works in a pharmacy during the day, but heads to Times Square, Grand Central and other popular busking locations to sing and earn extra cash while trying to get discovered.
