Gilberto Reyes

Born in the city of Camagüey, in the Cuban province of the same name, on June 6, 1955. He spent his childhood and part of his adolescence in his hometown. In 1972 he entered the National School of Art in Havana to study acting. In 1976 he graduated and was sent inland, to the Escambray Theater Group, to complete the required Social Service.

From 1981 he belonged to several theater groups. He has taken acting courses in different traditions, including that of the Polish director Jerzy Grotowski.

During that time he worked mainly in theater, but he also worked in television and film.

In 1993 he travels to Mexico for a children’s theater festival and decides to go to the United States and settle there.

In Miami he worked with different groups and did radio and television, taking part in a famous program for five years, El Mikimbin de Miami.

He has written scripts for television and acted in film. His latest appearance is the feature Plantados, about what happened in Cuba to the political prisoners in the 1960s.

Yunior Santana

He could be called a modern Renaissance man. His titles are as varied as a master’s degree in Oriental Medicine, a bachelor’s degree in Public Administration, a bachelor’s degree in Health Sciences, an associate degree in Political Science, 4th Dan in Inoe Ha Shito Ryu Kai, and a license as a real-estate agent.

That range of knowledge makes him a favorite guest on many radio and television programs, where he speaks with ease about subjects of wide interest: alternative medicine, quantum physics and medicine, esotericism, paranormal events, the possibility of extraterrestrial or multidimensional life, emotional energy and its effects on the body, and a good measure of sociopolitical topics.

He also spends hours wondering how history would change if an event had gone differently, or if it had been written down wrong.

A native of Cuba, he grew up on the shores of the Mediterranean, in a coastal town in eastern Spain called Benidorm. Today he lives in Miami, in southern Florida, with his wife and two daughters.
