He has been to Harvard, Berkeley, UCLA, UCI, SXSW Festival in Austin, Chicago, New York, Washington, Miami and even to the White House, where President Obama made a joke about not being able to screen "Y tu mama tambien" there due to its not so family-friendly content.

On Friday, Diego received an Impact Award for his outstanding performance as a director for his new movie "Cesar Chavez". The Impact Awards are given by the hispanic press in the US for latinos who put the community name on a high level.
