Vicente Juarbe

Overview

Vicente was born in the mountains of Utuado, Puerto Rico in 1951 and soon after, his family moved to New York City, where he grew up. Studied film directing in the New York School of Visual Arts in the 1970's, and later moved to Philadelphia to work for ABC television. After (5) years of producing public affairs programing for the Hispanic community, he returns to Puerto Rico in 1983. He worked as an independent producer/director/editor in the advertising and industrial markets. At the same time, he collaborated on numerous documentaries relating to the history and culture of Puerto Rico. Throughout the 1980's & 90's he worked in the film industry in various capacities. As assistant director, he worked on more than (15) films produced in Puerto Rico and the United States. In 2003, he directed Cayo, his first feature film. Cayo, provided the opportunity to work with the best theater actors in Puerto Rico, and with Roslyn Sanchez, who came from Hollywood to work on the project. Since then he has directed award winning films such as: Hay Hombres para Todas (2008), Il Viaggio: Una DocuMedia Surrealista (2011), El Rey del Bar (2012). In addition, he has directed various documentaries and two stage productions; Voces Contra el Poder (Spanish version of Speak Truth to Power written by Ariel Dorfman) and Julia Íntima (based on the writings of the Puerto Rican poet, Julia de Burgos). From 2006-2013, along with actress and professor, Idalia Pérez Garay, taught Actuando para la Cámara; workshops designed to teach film acting techniques. He is in post-production for (2) feature length documentaries: La Verdadera Historia de Teatro del Sesenta (Puerto Rico's oldest theater company) and El Sueño de Andy (The life and times of singer Andy Montañez).
