Silvio Horta ready to bring another Latino-themed project to television.

Horta, who won an ALMA Award, Writers Guild of America Award and NAACP Image Award for his writing work on Ugly Betty, also developed a drama about a Cuban-American family last year, Bastardsat ABC, which he executive produced with Salma Hayek and Mark Gordon.
