----------
Oswaldo Gómez, better known as Ms. Colombia, brightened one of New York City’s most popular beaches for decades with her colorful traditional Colombian skirts and green beard. Originally a lawyer, she immigrated to New York in 1975, earning the nickname Ms. Colombia by offering free legal advice to fellow Colombians. Her close friends, Victoria Cruz and Carlos Villacres, came to StoryCorps to share their memories of her.

Thank you so much for teaching me about Ms. Colombia. What a beautiful person! I want to believe that being so close to Elizabeth NJ (and with the large Colombian community there) that she might have visited and thus I would be so proud of my humble little hometown, the birthplace of Ms. Marsha P. Johnson and the stomping grounds of Ms. Colombia. ❤ one can dream ❤
