1 comments about Gloria Estefan: Cuban-American Singer (Hispanics of Achievement).
- I give this book a 4-star rating. This story takes place in Gloria Estefan's native land of Cuba and then in Miami, Florida, where she became famous. Gloria had a rough childhood because she had to take care of her sick father and watch over her younger sister while her mother worked very hard to keep her family afloat. Gloria enjoyed music and playing her guitar. In fact, she owes a lot to her mother for making her learn to play the guitar. Gloria would play and sing in order to forget all her problems. This was her way of relaxing. Gloria's career began when she met Emilio Estefan at her high school. Emilio came to the school to talk about music. Everybody was singing and playing their instruments. Emilio noticed Gloria playing her guitar and the fact that she could sing both in English and Spanish. He asked her to join his band, and she accepted. Gloria's first performance was at a local wedding. Emilio's band was called the "Latin Boys", but when Gloria joined, the name was changed to "Miami Sound Machine" (MSM). From this point forward, she became the "Gloria Estefan" we know today.
