Trinidad Silva, a character actor from Mission, Texas, had a promising career that was tragically cut short. He moved to Los Angeles in his mid-20s and landed his first acting role on "Baretta" in 1977. Unfortunately, due to the Latino typecasting prevalent at the time, most of his TV roles were as criminals or gang members. However, his role as Jesus Martinez on "Hill Street Blues" broke this stereotype, portraying a former gang leader turned community activist. Silva also played more positive roles in films like "Alambrista!" and "El Norte." Sadly, while filming "UHF" in 1988, Silva was killed by a drunk driver in Whittier, California. The film was dedicated to his memory. He was married to Sofia Alvarez. (오뜨랑에서 실시간으로 번역된 한글 프로필도 확인할 수 있어요) 1989년 UHF 전쟁에서 Raul Hernandez 역을 맡았다. 1989년 UHF 전쟁 제작에 참여했다. 1988년 유혹의 다운타운에서 Tito 역을 맡았다.
