Biografie
Agustín Blázquez was an actor, documentary filmmaker, artist, and author whose work focused on post-revolutionary Cuban politics. Born in Cárdenas in 1944, he graduated from The Municipal Academy of Dramatic Arts in Havana in 1962 and left Cuba in 1965. He lived in Montreal, Paris, and Madrid before settling in the United States in 1967. He played roles in several ICAIC films in the 1960s and appeared in various television productions for Televisión Española from 1966 to 1967. He produced the documentary series "Covering Cuba" from 1995 to 2010. Blázquez's articles were compiled in the book "Cubriendo y descubriendo/Covering and Discovering" (Alexandria Library Inc., with Carlos Wotzkow, 2001); he translated the book "The Mafia of Havana: The Cuban Cosa Nostra" by Luis Grave de Peralta into Spanish as "La Mafia de la Habana: Nuestra Cosa Nostra" (AuthorHouse, 2001).
