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.

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...

Amazing work with many famous voice artists. Listen to Annette as she tells us her story with the Jackson5, Frank Sinatra, etc.

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...In fact, it seems they set out to leave no stone unturned as they explored different sonic solutions to the age old problem of 'putting their message across' in song. Carol and Anthony LoTempio were born in Niagara Falls, NY. They took the Grammy® for Best Rock & Roll Song in 1963.  And, on October 26, 1999, they were inducted into the Buffalo Music Hall of Fame in Buffalo, NY:  a fitting tribute to two of pop music's most versatile and durable adventurers. They seem to have been born to create music. Explore, and discover some of the many roads their musical wanderlust has taken them. Today, Nino has a hit, a remastered CD album. Listen here to Amazon River his new release with April Stevens.

Today, I saw something disturbing. The number one Video Game is a violent game with mass destruction.  Grown-ups are advocating and promoting this on media. Why? Does this not affect children and their brains, anesthetize them to the point of not feeling any emotion?  Why are we not looking at this situation? Isn’t this Video Game craze going to far? Are Video Games causing kids to go and kill parents, friends  and schoolmates? I don’t believe it’s a gun issue, I believe the culprit of violence in our society are the Video Games. How do you feel about this statement? Children are playing violent Video Games and becoming  Robots like the characters in the game? This is my opinion..

An article written about Gary Shusett by Hal Croasmun:I believe Gary Shusett has a unique perspective when it comes to the business of screenwriting. He runs Sherwood Oaks Experimental College where he brings in over 200 producers, agents, and managers to speak to very small groups - 8 - 12 screenwriters.At the same time, his brother (Ronnie Shusett) doubles as both a producer and screenwriter on such movies as TOTAL RECALL, ALIEN, and MINORITY REPORT. Gary was also the driving force behind MOON OVER PARADOR with Richard Dreyfuss and has been a part of the movie business in Hollywood for over 30 years.Every few weeks, Gary is in a meeting with screenwriters on one side of the table and producers on the other. For years, he's been listening to the goals, concerns and complaints of both sides.Unlike most people, Gary can clearly see the gap between the two camps.HAL: You know almost every producer in Hollywood and have had most of them speak at your classes. What do you think they most want from a screenwriter?GARY: They want material they can sell. That they can get to an actor. That the studio will want to make into a movie. They want material that sounds good and is good. High concept and salable. Commercial. Similar to what they’ve heard before, but has a slight twist to it.They’re all buyers and sellers. Unless they’re a direct financier, which is not typical. Even if they’re financiers, someone has to market it and distribute it, so they’re still buying to sell.
