Concha Ortiz y Pino de Kleven is living history.

Ana Pacheco, editor and publisher of Concha! Matriarch of a Three Hundred-Year-Old New Mexico Legacy, said Kleven, at the age of 95, symbolizes all that is important to Hispanic New Mexicans. “She radiates the pride she has in being Hispanic,” Pacheco said. Both Kleven and Pacheco will be at the reading of Kleven’s biography as part of the “Open Doors Tricentennial Lecture Series.” Pacheco said the book gives the full background and history of one of New Mexico’s oldest families. Kleven’s family legacy goes back 300 years, she said.
