This interview was conducted as part of the CSUSM Veterans Voices project, facilitated by the California State University San Marcos History Department, from 2012-2013. Veterans Voices (originally called War at Home and Abroad) documents, preserves, and makes accessible the experiences of CSUSM's student veterans. This interview was conducted with a "self-interviewing" protocol, a process drawn from a technique known as Digital Storytelling, which invites the narrator to self-author the interview, telling their story from their perspective, in their own words, and in their own manner. Narrators were provided a list of topics and interview guidelines emphasizing that they could use all, some, or none of the topics as they fashioned their stories about military service and related experiences, thus allowing each narrator to decide what they deemed to be historically important.]]> Cheryl Knowles (Cheryl Dinning)]]> In copyright]]> English]]> Digital cameras]]> Escondido Times-Advocate (Escondido, Calif.)]]> Mexican Americans]]> Photographic chemicals]]> Photojournalists]]>

As a child and teen laborer Rios, due to extreme heat, convinced his field worker family to leave the Central Valley and join his aunts in San Diego. They moved in 1953. As a 14 year old teen high school drop-out, Rios started his own gardening and landscaping business in La Jolla, California. A client convinced Rios to attend night school to get his high school degree. Rios then pursued a civil engineering degree at community college, eventually dropping the pursuit of engineering when he finds his passion for photography. Rios acquired a degree in commercial and portrait photography at San Diego Community college where he met his mentors. After graduation he sought work as a photographer and landed an interview in Escondido for the regional newspaper, the Escondido Times-Advocate.]]> Daniel Flores Rios]]> Alexa Clausen]]> English]]> Escondido (Calif.)]]> Hanford (Calif.)]]> La Jolla (San Diego, Calif.)]]> Ocean Beach (San Diego, Calif.)]]> Agricultural laborers -- California]]> Mesa Community College (San Diego, Calif.)]]> Mexican Americans]]> Photojournalists]]>
