11 - Capturing & Celebrating Culture through my Lens feat. Danny Hastings

Hola mi gente! Welcome to Siempre Pa’lante! Always Forward. I’m your host, Giraldo Luis Alvaré. Gracias for listening. In this episode, our guest shares his humble beginnings growing up in Panama. Inspired by his Tio, he found his passion that led him to Nueva York, la gran manzana. New York embraced him because he was relentless in his pursuit for El Sueño Americano. Wu-tang, Jay-Z, Big Pun, The Lox, Gang Starr, House of Pain, you heard that right, those are just a few of more than 150 album covers, countless magazines and events his photography has blessed with his talents. As the creator of the Official Latino Film & Arts Festival, he is dedicated to ensure the Latinx community is well represented in Hollywood. This Panameño Can’t Stop and Won’t Stop.
