María Teresa Enriqueta "Queta" Jiménez Chabolla[1] (born circa 1941), more commonly known by her stage name La Prieta Linda, is a Mexican recording artist and actress.[2] The younger sister of popular recording artist and actress Flor Silvestre, Jiménez debuted as a singer with Silvestre Vargas's mariachi in 1955,[3] and shortly after won the first Ranchera Music Festival with the song "Amantes de una noche".[3] Over the years Jiménez has recorded over 40 albums and has made various tours across Mexico and other countries.[3] In her acting career, her comic role in the film Valente Quintero is highly notable since she gives a performance without singing.[3]
