This is the autobiography of a courageous woman who didn’t let life’s adversities stand in her way as she marched toward economic independence. This is the story of a woman who started out selling tacos out of a cart, and turned the business into a beloved Austin institution. This is the story of a self-made woman who has become a South Austin legend.
John Kelso, journalist, Austin American Statesman Maria is South Austin’s Taco Queen.
Virginia Wood, Austin Chronicle

This is the story of a woman’s life from birth in Buenos Aires to Austin legend, and the wild journey she traveled from homelessness to icon, from dysfunction to healing. Corbalan brings us a swell of dream, disaster, drugs and recovery as she grows wisely outrageous.
Susan Bright, poet
