  • Carlo Mendez, Actor

    Carlo Mendez, Actor
    May 30 2019
    Cuban-American actor Carlo Mendez was born in Los Angeles, CA into a loving family of Cuban immigrant parents and the youngest of 7 siblings. Carlo got the acting bug at the early age of 5 years old and discovered his passion for acting and the world of film. Although his childhood was like that of any other normal kid, such as playing baseball in the community team, his imagination was always flying high dreaming of becoming actor. The idea of playing someone else was always what excited him the most in life.


    His family moved to Miami, FL when Carlo was 9 years old and his first brush with stardom knocked on his door when he was in high school. He was offered to compete in a magazine as a model and was one of the finalists, his photos were published for the national popular teen magazine YM (Young & Modern). Although Carlo did not win the competition, people in his community started recognizing him wherever he went and he experienced something he had never lived before: a touch of fame. During college he began pursuing a career as a police officer, but soon decided that he needed to follow his heart and follow his dream of becoming an actor. Carlo moved to Los Angeles and soon started training with renowned acting coach, Ivana Chubbuck. Shortly after he booked his first role, a co-star role in the new version of the series 90210 (CW), which only confirmed that he was on the right path and pushed him forward in his pursuit of becoming a working actor.

    Nino Tempo & April Stevens
    Jun 20 2018
    There are very few acts in pop music who have covered such a wide spectrum of styles as this duo. From April's early, highly influential hits with Henri René, and Nino's appearance with Benny Goodman onstage at 7 years old (!), to his recent appearance at Carnegie Hall--there have been masterful forays into rock and roll, jazz, latin sounds, rhythm and blues, sweet harmonies, lush, expansive ballads...
