- Kicking off our list of influential Hispanic Americans is Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez. Born in 1989 in the Bronx, New York, into a Puerto Rican family, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez went on to become the youngest woman ever elected to Congress, at the age of 29. After a successful grassroots campaign that won a great deal of support, AOC (as she is often referred to) entered the US House of Representatives for New York’s 14th district in January 2019.
- In 1988, Ochoa joined NASA as a research engineer and was selected to be an astronaut in 1990. Three years later, she became the first Hispanic American woman to go to space, as part of a mission to study the Earth’s ozone layer. Ochoa completed 3 more missions and later became the Johnson Space Center’s first Hispanic director. She is truly one of the most influential Hispanic Americans in history!
