Reviews
"This provides a witty first-person point of view on the not so glamorous world of TV news. Leticia has done a great work sharing some of her favorite moments in such an entertaining and inspiring way. Very happy to say I know That Girl on TV and I'm better for it. I believe readers will be too." - Rob Mayeda, KNTV Meteorologist, storm chaser, "Thank you Leticia--you are a voice connector for our most vulnerable in our community!" - Sister Libby Fernandez, Sacramento's most popular nun, Mercy Pedalers street ministry, " That Girl on TV leads by example. Leticia's life journey starts with simple steps, but it's her ambition, drive, and determination that takes her from a small town and small beginnings to a place in front of the camera, and eventually to the anchor desk. Leticia is a natural storyteller whether it's on TV or coming off the pages of a book."- Rich Ibarra, former Reporter KCRA, KXTV, KOVR
