CSUSB CAL Talks

This is an entertaining and informative episode with Dr. Guillermo Aviles-Rodriguez. It's an understatement to say that Guillermo is colorful, intelligent, funny and a deep thinker. He is all that and more as he adds his depth and style to the Department of Theatre Arts here at Cal State San Bernardino.
Guillermo holds a Bachelor of Fine Arts from the University of Utah, a Master of Fine Arts from UC San Diego and a Ph.D. from the University of California, Los Angeles. Guillermo grew up in Watts and holds the distinction of being the first Chicana/o ever to star in a main-stage production at the University of Utah. Some of Guillermo's directorial and literary highlights include two commissions from Center Theatre Group to write Student Discovery Guides for En Un Sol Amarillo and Culture Clash's Palestine, New Mexico.
Guillermo has collaborated with Spanish-speaking theatre groups in the U.S. including Grupo malayerba from Ecuador, Yuyachkani from Peru, and Teatro de los andes from Bolivia.
Not only is he a So Cal native but Guillermo's family lives in San Bernardino and his sister graduated from CSUSB!
