Jorge Reyes (b. 1972) is a Cuban-born American author known
for authoring books in several genres.
Early life
Born in Santiago de
Cuba, Reyes left Cuba for the United States via Costa Rica in 1982.
Published Books
Reyes has written books in several genres of
literature: biography, fiction, non-fiction, comedy, children's books,
poetry.
His first book was a book in Spanish titled
Guia Para Descubrir
Tu Cuerpo, about the human anatomy for children ages 7-10. According to
Publishers Weekly, the book demonstrated Reyes's ability to distill very complex
information (the human body) into simple, but highly visual.
Most of what
is known about Reyes's childhood was written by Reyes himself in
Rediscovering Cuba: A Personal Memoir, published in 2001. The book is based on a
trip to Cuba to see his ailing grandmother. This was followed by a collection of poems titled,
My Words Mean Something.
As of 2013, no release date has yet been set for some of his other books.
Reyes lives in South Florida.
