Rick Mora – Gorgeous Native

Bailey here again –

It’s been a while since I’ve written about a Native hunk, so here we go. Ever heard of Rick Mora? Hmmmm. He’s nice. VERY nice. And apparently, he’s a very busy guy. Rick is an actor, model, photographer and producer. He’s also a speaker and has done radio broadcasting.

Rick, an Apache / Yaqui Native, holds a Bachelors Degree in Communication from Cal State, Northridge. He started acting and modeling soon after graduating and was discovered by male super model agent, Omar Alberto, who envisioned the Native man in entertainment. (Thank you, Omar!)

Rick played Warrior #1 in the movie Twilight in the flashback scene when Jacob explains to Bella about the history of his Tribe with the Cold Ones. (I remember that scene!) He’s also had starring roles in The Dead and the Damned, the VILA Chronicles and Operation Repo. He is the voice of Young Turok in the animated feature Turok: Son of Stone, based on the video game, also starring Native actors, Adam Beach and Graham Greene.

As a model, Rick has 4 posters (oh yeah!) being distributed by photographer Carlos Reynosa (http://carlosreynosa.com/). As a photographer, Rick has 9 commissioned pieces to date. He specializes in landscapes, but also shoots headshots, portfolios, children and weddings. (I think I need a headshot!) As a music lover, Rick discovers, develops and produces musicians and bands in the brutal music business. (Darn, I have no musical talent whatsoever. )

Rick also supports the fight against domestic and sexual abuse against Native women. A noble endeavor for a very serious problem.

        Tanya, Im sorry the first top picture is not Rick Mora. He looks very much like him. but its not. His Name is Michael Xhaantera and he died feb 11 2020 in a roofing accident in texas. He was 16-17 yrs old when he took this pic and when he died he was 43. I have this picture in my house. i know he looks like Rick alot, but he is not. Someone stole this picture some how. Michael hated taking pictures and forbidded it due to his native american ways and what they believed in. your other pics are probably Rick but first one no. Its funny cause i saw that Rick was into saving Canines, and me and Michael were going to run a sanctuary for older and unwanted dogs, cats, horses , etc. it was his dream. He was gorgeous yes. His personality was even sweeter. big heart. it was a great loss to many that loved him. Have a great day. Ps. if you look around this is the only pic of Michael you will find repeated and they keep saying its Rick Mora. They stole it.
