With her expressive vocals, Lola Beltran brought ranchera or mariachi music from the barrios of Mexico to the international stage. During the four decades that she was active, Beltran recorded more than 70 tunes with many achieving gold record status. In 1982, Beltran received la Medella del Artistica del Extranjero for her efforts as Mexico's cultural ambassador.
Beltran was a secretary at a Mexican radio station when she was encouraged by famed singer Matilde Sanchez and Miguel Aceves Vieja. With their support, Beltran made her professional debut as a singer in 1954. Her performances became the springboard for her career as she was overheard and signed to a recording contract by Peerless Records. In addition to her career as a vocalist, Beltran was successful as a co-producer and actress in several films, including Cucurucucu Paloma, based on a popular song by Tomas Mendez. Beltran celebrated her 40th anniversary in music with a concert at the Palacio del las Bellas Artes in 1994.
