Happy Birthday, Curro Romero
Respected matador de toros, Curro Romero, celebrated his 80th birthday recently.
During his prime, Romero was an icon known for moments of extreme unpredictability and also great art, depending on the circumstances at hand.
In a career that spanned from the 1950s onward, he saw great triumphs in Sevilla, Nimes, Madrid, Valencia and all the other major plazas.
He remains unique in the world of the bulls.
