Send us a text
Welcome to the Global Latin Factor podcast, where we explore the lives and careers of some of the most influential Latin musicians, artists of our time & Latino Culture. This week, we're diving into the incredible story of Latina Mexican American singer, songwriter, and activist Joan Baez & Columbian actor John Leguizamo.
With over 60 years in the industry and more than 30 albums, Baez's music spans across genres such as folk, rock, pop, country, and gospel. She began her recording career in 1960 and achieved immediate success. Her first three albums, Joan Baez, Joan Baez, Vol. 2, and Joan Baez in Concert all achieved gold record status.
Baez is known for interpreting other composers' work, having recorded songs by the Allman Brothers Band, the Beatles, Jackson Browne, Leonard Cohen, Woody Guthrie, Violeta Parra, the Rolling Stones, Pete Seeger, Paul Simon, Stevie Wonder, Bob Marley, and many others. She was one of the first major artists to record the songs of Bob Dylan in the early 1960s and helped popularize his early songwriting efforts.
We also want to take a moment to recognize another influential Latin artist, John Leguizamo. He was born July 22, 1960, in Bogotá, Colombia, and is an actor, comedian, and film producer.
He rose to fame with a co-starring role in Super Mario Bros. (1993) as Luigi, and a supporting role in the crime drama Carlito's Way (1993). He was a child when his family emigrated to the United States. He was raised in Queens, New York, attended New York University, and studied under legendary acting coach Lee Strasberg for only one day before Strasberg passed away. He began his theater career at
