Pancho Villa and His Wife, Luz Corral, 1914

REWORK, Pancho Villa and his wife, Luz Corral, greeting a group of photographers and reporters photographed by Wilbur Henry Durborough, January 1, 1914. José Doroteo Arango Arámbula (June 5, 1878 - July 20, 1923) was one of the most prominent Mexican Revolutionary generals. As commander of the División del Norte (Division of the North), he was the veritable caudillo of the northern Mexican state of Chihuahua, which, given its size, mineral wealth, and proximity to the United States of America, provided him with extensive resources. After his famous raid on Columbus, New Mexico, in 1916, U.S. Army General John J. Pershing tried unsuccessfully to capture Villa in a 9 month pursuit that ended when the United States entered into WWI and Pershing was called back. Villa retired in 1920 and was given a large estate, which he turned into a colony for his former soldiers. In 1923, he became involved once again in Mexican politics and as a result was assassinated at the age of 45. Today his memory is honored by Mexicans and numerous streets and neighborhoods in Mexico are named in his honor.
