Dear Sir or Madam,

I am a photo journalist based here in Tucson, Arizona. I work with The Desert Leaf Magazine, a Southern Arizona publication with a monthly circulation of 56,000 issues. My prior articles can be viewed online at https://www.fotoventures.net/articles.htm.

I am currently doing research, gathering material, and conducting interviews for an article about the history and evolution of Mariachi in Mexico as well as the significance of the Tucson International Mariachi Conference.

I respectfully request that I be granted press accreditation, in order to attend and fully cover the various workshops and events of this year’s Mariachi Conference. 

Thank you kindly for your assistance.

Sincerely,
Dan Chavez
