A pink, Argyle robe conceals Libertad Green's petite, slender frame as she sits at her desk, in her Hollywood studio apartment. A pink laptop computer perched atop the fluorescent, lime green table which serves as her desk, has white keys, and a matching, pink pig thumb drive.
The room seems crowded, with an industrial strength clothing rack on wheels, filled and covered with clothes, and a mountain of clothing and costume jewelry growing around it, occupying the middle of it. The sound of a baby crying and the music of Foreigner comes through the only window and the Venetian blinds.
Libertad pours herself some coffee and adds sugar to it.
Libertad Green has made something of a name for herself, at least on the Internet. If I Google "Jezebel," the second link which appears leads to a WikiPedia article that mentions Libertad's co-starring role as the infamous,Biblical Queen, and displays a picture of her in one of the costumes she wore for that role. When I Google "hawaiian hula dance," the first link (from a thumbnail of her in a grass skirt and lei) leads to a video of her hula dancing, that has approximately one million, four hundred thousand views.
If I Google "libertad green," I discover links to her official website (www.libertadgreen.com) of which she is the webmistress, as well as links to one of her ModelMayhem pages and her Internet Movie Database profile; seven thumbnails of her headshots, and bikini and belly dance pics; a thumbnail leading to a television interview on the Tim E.D. Show; an interview with her by the Eerie Digest; and a bio by TVRage.com. SchoolofEliteTalent.com indicates that the pronunciation of her first name, which "can be improper,"
is "lee-bear-TODD." Libertad pronounces her name "libber-TODD." Spanish isn't her forte.
