His family contained of six members that included his three siblings, Maria Vicenta Guerra, Rafael Luis Guerra, and an eldest brother who his name is unknown. His brother, Rafael L. Guerra was born on November 20, 1926 in Habana, Cuba and died on October 2, 1998 in Miami, Florida. His sister, Maria, was born on June 19, 1924 in Habana, Cuba. A year after her brother's death, she died on February 27, 1999 in Miami, Florida.

He participated in the 8th Army (Octavo Ejército) of EE.UU. (United States). He covered the campaign of the Pacific as the 35th Division of Infantry (35 División de Infantería) called División Relámpago (Lightning Division). He finished training in the military at Fort Dix, Burlington County, New Jersey in the Delaware River region on October of 1946.","Once he finished his service, he returned to Cuba and founded a company called CINEPERIODICO in 1947. His motivation of starting this company began from his interest in journalism. At the age of 16, he delved into both journalism and short films/news films. He was one of the editors of Él País, La Habana. These experiences guided him to globally make notorious documentaries and cinematography of actual events and issues. He traveled around the globe. For instance, he registered for a temporary immigration card to Rio de Janeiro, Brazil in 1959 as a journalist. As a result for his traveling, he encountered prominent leaders of various movements.","One of those encounters, José Guerra Alemán climbed the Mountains of Sierra Maestra, in the province of East of the Island of Cuba to interview Fidel Castro and Che Guevara. Under the agency of his company, CINEPERIODICO, he personally knew these men and those who were a part of the guerillas during the Cuban Revolution. In 1950, he worked with José García and Eduardo Hernández (Guayo) in the same company.

This included the creation of historical documentary films.","With his interest in Cuba's history and living at a time of historical changes in Cuba, he wrote extensive materials along those themes. He wrote Aún Hay Luna En Los Cerros, Ensayos (Las Mayorías Discriminadas): En Defensa de la Mujer, Barro y Cenizas (Díalogos con Fidel Castro y el Che Guevara), and Juro Pero No Prometo (Biografía de su Abuelo el General José Braulio Alemán). His major work composes four volumes of encyclopedias called Cuba Infinita. Each book contains specific chronological decades and starts from 1855, when the first photographs of the city were available by American artist Fredericks De Forest, to 1958, when the Republic collapsed. The volumes includes more than a thousand selected photos of the history of Cuba, from colonial times to the Spanish American War. The reader walks through time and gets to see the transformation of Cuba. He included photographs received by family, friends, colleagues and what he collected from his travels. He also was inspired and guided from the work called La Enciclopedia de Cuba.","Understanding where his family came from and knowing the other members of his family tree can provide a part of José Guerra Alemán's identity.

His grandfather named José Braulio Guerra Alemán fought in the Spanish-American War as a Cuban Brigadier General and was the principal author to the Constitution of Cuba proclaimed at Yara in 1896. He worked as a lawyer, newspaper owner, advocate of the liberation of Cuba, senator and governor for the province of Las Villas, minister of Education and ambassador to Mexico. His half uncle, José Manuel Alemán, served in the Cuban government as Minister of Education during the presidency of Dr. Ramón Grau San Martin, president of the Authentic Party (Partido Auténtico) in La Habana, and Senator of the Republic.

He survived his wife named Lidia Llano who he married on September 22, 1945 and left a son named Carlos Guerra Llano. He left a mark of what he had done, significant work in Cuba's history. However, he has not been given as much attention as he deserves in any setting, especially in academia. It is the many aspects of unknown history and researching the people from below like Alemán.

He participated in the 8th Army (Octavo Ejército) of EE.UU. (United States). He covered the campaign of the Pacific as the 35th Division of Infantry (35 División de Infantería) called División Relámpago (Lightning Division). He finished training in the military at Fort Dix, Burlington County, New Jersey in the Delaware River region on October of 1946.","Once he finished his service, he returned to Cuba and founded a company called CINEPERIODICO in 1947. His motivation of starting this company began from his interest in journalism. At the age of 16, he delved into both journalism and short films/news films. He was one of the editors of Él País, La Habana. These experiences guided him to globally make notorious documentaries and cinematography of actual events and issues. He traveled around the globe. For instance, he registered for a temporary immigration card to Rio de Janeiro, Brazil in 1959 as a journalist. As a result for his traveling, he encountered prominent leaders of various movements.","One of those encounters, José Guerra Alemán climbed the Mountains of Sierra Maestra, in the province of East of the Island of Cuba to interview Fidel Castro and Che Guevara. Under the agency of his company, CINEPERIODICO, he personally knew these men and those who were a part of the guerillas during the Cuban Revolution. In 1950, he worked with José García and Eduardo Hernández (Guayo) in the same company. José Guerra Alemán directed films such as Sangre Y Esperanza: La Cuba de Hoy (Blood and Hope: the Cuba of Today and El Gran Recuento (The Great Story). He also took the position as the Senior Vice President of Guastella Film Producers Inc., an advertising firm in Puerto Rico, where he did similar works until he retired in 1990. This included the creation of historical documentary films.","With his interest in Cuba's history and living at a time of historical changes in Cuba, he wrote extensive materials along those themes. He wrote Aún Hay Luna En Los Cerros, Ensayos (Las Mayorías Discriminadas): En Defensa de la Mujer, Barro y Cenizas (Díalogos con Fidel Castro y el Che Guevara), and Juro Pero No Prometo (Biografía de su Abuelo el General José Braulio Alemán). His major work composes four volumes of encyclopedias called Cuba Infinita. Each book contains specific chronological decades and starts from 1855, when the first photographs of the city were available by American artist Fredericks De Forest, to 1958, when the Republic collapsed. The volumes includes more than a thousand selected photos of the history of Cuba, from colonial times to the Spanish American War. The reader walks through time and gets to see the transformation of Cuba. He included photographs received by family, friends, colleagues and what he collected from his travels. He also was inspired and guided from the work called La Enciclopedia de Cuba.","Understanding where his family came from and knowing the other members of his family tree can provide a part of José Guerra Alemán's identity. Jose Guerra Alemán's maternal bloodline had a huge role in the movement toward Cuba's independence against colonialism and imperialism. His grandfather named José Braulio Guerra Alemán fought in the Spanish-American War as a Cuban Brigadier General and was the principal author to the Constitution of Cuba proclaimed at Yara in 1896. He worked as a lawyer, newspaper owner, advocate of the liberation of Cuba, senator and governor for the province of Las Villas, minister of Education and ambassador to Mexico. His half uncle, José Manuel Alemán, served in the Cuban government as Minister of Education during the presidency of Dr. Ramón Grau San Martin, president of the Authentic Party (Partido Auténtico) in La Habana, and Senator of the Republic. His family went through three generations of leaders and fighters for Cuban independence through revolutions or preserving its history and culture.","He rested on February 22, 2013 in Miami, Florida. He survived his wife named Lidia Llano who he married on September 22, 1945 and left a son named Carlos Guerra Llano. He left a mark of what he had done, significant work in Cuba's history. However, he has not been given as much attention as he deserves in any setting, especially in academia. It is the many aspects of unknown history and researching the people from below like Alemán. He was a Cuban, veteran, journalist, nontraditional historian, and founder of a journalist business."],"prefercite_html_tesm":["\u003cp\u003eJos\u0026#xE9; Guerra Alem\u0026#xE1;n Collection, Special Collections and UniversityArchives, University of Central Florida, Orlando, Florida.\u003c/p\u003e"],"prefercite_tesim":["José Guerra Alemán Collection, Special Collections and UniversityArchives, University of Central Florida, Orlando, Florida."],"processinfo_html_tesm":["\u003cp\u003eMaterials are housed in acid free folders and boxes; photographs and negatives were placed in clear sleeves; publications removed from the collection and cataloged separately.\u003c/p\u003e"],"processinfo_heading_ssm":["Processing Information"],"processinfo_tesim":["Materials are housed in acid free folders and boxes; photographs and negatives were placed in clear sleeves; publications removed from the collection and cataloged separately."],"relatedmaterial_html_tesm":["\u003cp\u003eBooks collected by Jos\u0026#xE9; Guerra Alem\u0026#xE1;n can be found by performing a series search for \"Jos\u0026#xE9; Guerra Alem\u0026#xE1;n Collection\" in the UCF Libraries catalog.\u003c/p\u003e"],"relatedmaterial_heading_ssm":["Related Materials"],"relatedmaterial_tesim":["Books collected by José Guerra Alemán can be found by performing a series search for \"José Guerra Alemán Collection\" in the UCF Libraries catalog."],"scopecontent_html_tesm":["\u003cp\u003eThis collection was arranged in seven series:\u003c/p\u003e\n","\u003cp\u003e\nSeries I.

In her later years, she was a homemaker and she never married.","In his early years, he enrolled in the United States military at the age of 20 in 1942. He participated in the 8th Army (Octavo Ejército) of EE.UU. (United States). He covered the campaign of the Pacific as the 35th Division of Infantry (35 División de Infantería) called División Relámpago (Lightning Division). He finished training in the military at Fort Dix, Burlington County, New Jersey in the Delaware River region on October of 1946.","Once he finished his service, he returned to Cuba and founded a company called CINEPERIODICO in 1947. His motivation of starting this company began from his interest in journalism. At the age of 16, he delved into both journalism and short films/news films. He was one of the editors of Él País, La Habana. These experiences guided him to globally make notorious documentaries and cinematography of actual events and issues. He traveled around the globe. For instance, he registered for a temporary immigration card to Rio de Janeiro, Brazil in 1959 as a journalist. As a result for his traveling, he encountered prominent leaders of various movements.","One of those encounters, José Guerra Alemán climbed the Mountains of Sierra Maestra, in the province of East of the Island of Cuba to interview Fidel Castro and Che Guevara. Under the agency of his company, CINEPERIODICO, he personally knew these men and those who were a part of the guerillas during the Cuban Revolution. In 1950, he worked with José García and Eduardo Hernández (Guayo) in the same company. José Guerra Alemán directed films such as Sangre Y Esperanza: La Cuba de Hoy (Blood and Hope: the Cuba of Today and El Gran Recuento (The Great Story). He also took the position as the Senior Vice President of Guastella Film Producers Inc., an advertising firm in Puerto Rico, where he did similar works until he retired in 1990. This included the creation of historical documentary films.","With his interest in Cuba's history and living at a time of historical changes in Cuba, he wrote extensive materials along those themes. He wrote Aún Hay Luna En Los Cerros, Ensayos (Las Mayorías Discriminadas): En Defensa de la Mujer, Barro y Cenizas (Díalogos con Fidel Castro y el Che Guevara), and Juro Pero No Prometo (Biografía de su Abuelo el General José Braulio Alemán). His major work composes four volumes of encyclopedias called Cuba Infinita. Each book contains specific chronological decades and starts from 1855, when the first photographs of the city were available by American artist Fredericks De Forest, to 1958, when the Republic collapsed. The volumes includes more than a thousand selected photos of the history of Cuba, from colonial times to the Spanish American War. The reader walks through time and gets to see the transformation of Cuba. He included photographs received by family, friends, colleagues and what he collected from his travels. He also was inspired and guided from the work called La Enciclopedia de Cuba.","Understanding where his family came from and knowing the other members of his family tree can provide a part of José Guerra Alemán's identity. Jose Guerra Alemán's maternal bloodline had a huge role in the movement toward Cuba's independence against colonialism and imperialism. His grandfather named José Braulio Guerra Alemán fought in the Spanish-American War as a Cuban Brigadier General and was the principal author to the Constitution of Cuba proclaimed at Yara in 1896. He worked as a lawyer, newspaper owner, advocate of the liberation of Cuba, senator and governor for the province of Las Villas, minister of Education and ambassador to Mexico. His half uncle, José Manuel Alemán, served in the Cuban government as Minister of Education during the presidency of Dr. Ramón Grau San Martin, president of the Authentic Party (Partido Auténtico) in La Habana, and Senator of the Republic. His family went through three generations of leaders and fighters for Cuban independence through revolutions or preserving its history and culture.","He rested on February 22, 2013 in Miami, Florida. He survived his wife named Lidia Llano who he married on September 22, 1945 and left a son named Carlos Guerra Llano. He left a mark of what he had done, significant work in Cuba's history. However, he has not been given as much attention as he deserves in any setting, especially in academia. It is the many aspects of unknown history and researching the people from below like Alemán. He was a Cuban, veteran, journalist, nontraditional historian, and founder of a journalist business.","Materials are housed in acid free folders and boxes; photographs and negatives were placed in clear sleeves; publications removed from the collection and cataloged separately.","Books collected by José Guerra Alemán can be found by performing a series search for \"José Guerra Alemán Collection\" in the UCF Libraries catalog.","This collection was arranged in seven series:","\nSeries I.

His father's family were early settlers of Lake County and his mother, the former Carrie Phillips, was a member of the pioneer Phillips family of Marion County.\n Dick was raised on a farm in the little community of Fellowship, near Ocala, where his father farmed and also taught school. Mr. Ervin attended school in several counties - the number of different schools being occasion­ed by the father's profession as teacher.\n In 1921 at the age of 16, he served as Engrossing Clerk for the Florida House of Representatives, youngest to hold this responsible position. He graduated from the Law College of the University of Florida in 1928 and engaged in the practice of law in Pinellas, Lee, and Putnam Counties until 1935.\n He married the former Frances Baker of Jacksonville in 1933 and the Ervins have have two children, Richard W. III and Sarah Eve.\n Mr. Ervin entered full time public service in 1935 as an attorney for the State Road Department. He served as Road Department Lawyer until August of 1943 then as Assistant Attorney General untill January 1945 when he became Secretary of the Florida Railroad Commission for six months. He resumed the position as Resident Attorney for the Road Department in 1945 until he resigned in January of 1948 to campaign successfully for the office of Attorney General.\n During these years of public service Mr. Ervin helped activate the roadside beautification program by the Road Department, served as legal counsel for the Overseas Highway Bridge District, drafted the law creat­ing the Department of Public Safety, and later served as its attorney.\n Mr. Ervin specialized in drafting complex legislative acts, assisted in drafting and securing passage of the law giving counties shares of gasoline tax, thus relieving them of staggering road bond indebtedness.\n His administration of the office of Attorney General from 1948-1964 was distinguished by the publication of the first original revision of the Florida Statutes since 1941, and by his drive to rid the State of Florida of organized bookmaking and illegal gambling activities. Because of his efforts in this field, Mr. Ervin has achieved national and state acclaim and was selected by the Junior Chamber of Commerce as the outstanding government official in the State in 1950. He has been prom­inent in the affairs of the National Association of Attorneys General.\n Richard Ervin has served on the Supreme Court from the time of his appointment and election in 1964 until his retirement January 7, 1975. As a judge he considers his years on the Supreme Court the most satisfying of his 40 years of public service. Ervin says of his contributions that he has tried to blow the chaff of judicial procedures so that the odds won't be so great against the average citizen, and feels that the law should try within reason to help people whose incomes are below the federal poverty threshold and the disadvantaged.","Original donations, MSS 74-7 and 75-9 were processed by Shirley Fogle and Sara Buckmaster, Spring 1975 (22,472 items).

There is one oversize box containing newspapers.","\tFrom 1930-1933, and from the early 1950s through approximately 2008, Florida Southern College operated a series of satellite campuses, which provided classes for military personnel, veterans and dependents, as well as complete degree programs for young professionals and senior citizens.  In most cases, these campuses were small, having an administrative office and a few classrooms. The programs offered by FSC were as follows:  ","\nMacDill Air Force Base, Tampa:  The Florida Southern College of Opportunity began at MacDill AFB in the fall of 1950. Airmen and their dependents were offered seven week courses which awarded three credits each and were primarily held in the evenings.  Classes were taught by FSC professors who commuted to the base from Lakeland.  The program at MacDill lasted until the early 1960s.","\nMcCoy Air Force Base/FSC at Orlando/FSC Orlando-Ocala: For most of its history, this program was located on the west side of what is now the Orlando International Airport.  This was the longest-running series of FSC satellite programs, lasting from 1954 until 2008, and can be best looked at in four phases:\n    ","\tPinecastle Air Force Base: The October 14, 1954 issue of The Southern mentions classes being held here since 1954.  Very little is known about this program, including when it was terminated.  Of special note, Pinecastle AFB was renamed McCoy Air Force base in 1957. ","\n\tFSC at McCoy AFB: The program's official history lists its beginning as September, 1960, however as previously mentioned, classes were held as early as 1954 when the base was still known as Pinecastle.  Classes were held in the base education building, the alert facility, and a building located halfway between the two.  This last building was needed as aircrews serving on alert were required to remain within a certain \"reaction distance\" from their aircraft.  McCoy was a large Strategic Air Command base, and on numerous occasions classes were interrupted by nuclear alert drills.  More than 500 members of the military and civilian employees at McCoy could be taking classes at any one time, and classes met every weekday evening as well as Saturday mornings.  There was also what was known as a \"brown bag\" class, where professors would offer portions of a class during the official base lunch hour. As with the program at MacDill, some of the FSC professors from the main campus commuted to Orlando to teach.  This portion of the program lasted until the Air Force closed the base in 1974.\n ","\tFSC at Orlando/FSC Orlando-Ocala:  When the Air Force closed McCoy, the runways were ceded to the City of Orlando for use in what is now known as Orlando International Airport.  The west side of the base was ceded to the Navy for use as housing and other activities in support of its training center near Winter Park.  In 1974-1975, the college received permission to continue a similar program with the Navy as they had had with the Air Force.  Additionally, classes were opened for non-military affiliated civilians for the first time, assuring the program's continuance regardless of any future base closings. The Orlando program was geared towards working professionals, with majors in Accounting, Business Administration, Nursing, as well as a few social sciences. Students from FSC's main campus in Lakeland could also take courses in Orlando if needed. In the late 1990s/early 2000s, the college left its facilities at the airport and located on Rio Grande Avenue in the Oak Ridge area of Orlando.  In the early 2000s, the Orlando program expanded to include classes in Ocala.  The classes were held at what is now the College for Central Florida-Ocala campus.  As with the main program in Orlando, classes were geared towards working professionals and were primarily held in the evenings.  Classes in Business, Accounting, and Nursing were offered.  The Orlando-Ocala program ended in 2008.   \n ","Palm Beach Air Force Base:  Little is known about this program other than it commenced operations in 1955. The Air Force began operations to close the base starting in 1959, so it is assumed that the program ended around this time.  ","\nPort Charlotte/Charlotte-De Soto:  This program was initially started by West Virginia Wesleyan University in 1980 as an attempt to offer a liberal arts education to senior citizens.  It was known as Wesleyan in Southwest Florida. The director, Dr. Sidney Davis and his wife, Dr. Marian Davis, began classes at the cultural center in Port Charlotte.  In 1983, classes were moved to a facility in Lake Suzy, near Port Charlotte.  In the fall of 1992, the school moved to yet another location in nearby De Soto County.  Thus, the name was changed to the Charlotte-De Soto Program.  For the first five years of operations, the college fell under the administration of West Virginia Wesleyan.  In 1986, Florida Southern College assumed administrative responsibility at the request of the United Methodist Church's University Senate.  The Florida Conference of the UMC felt that since this school was being administered by an out of state Methodist College, it was unfairly competing with both Florida Southern College and Bethune-Cookman College. For the first several years, the college marketed towards retirees, however changing demographics in the Charlotte-De Soto area encouraged the college to open classes to young professionals.  Towards the end of the program, nearly 90% of students fell into this demographic.  The program was phased out in 1999-2000 due to the distance from the main campus in Lakeland with the challenge of maintaining close linkage with full time faculty. This expense, coupled with the need to construct new facilities, as well as new competition with other degree-granting institutions in the area, led Florida Southern to phase-out the program.  No other college wished to take over the program, and it finally ended on December 3, 2000.     ","\nIn addition to these campuses, there exists the relationship between Florida Southern College and the Ringling College of Art and Design in Sarasota. In the late 1920s, Dr. Ludd M. Spivey explored the idea of moving what was then known as Southern College from Lakeland to Sarasota. Spivey had sought the financial support of circus magnate John Ringling, who while reluctant to donate to Southern College, was interested in developing an art school. After much discussion and negotiation, it was agreed that Southern College would open its own art school in Sarasota as a branch. With much reluctance, Ringling agreed that it could be known as the School of Fine and Applied Art of the John and Mable Ringling Art Museum, lending his name and that of his recently departed wife (she had passed away in 1929) to the school, to associate the Florida Southern art school with the more famous name of the Ringlings and their museum.","The first class had only 75 students and 13 faculty members. Each student paid $783 per year for tuition, board, room, fees, and books. Students also attended chapel services every day, and the school's president or dean had to receive written permission if a student wanted to leave town.","The art school separated from Southern College and became an independent nonprofit institution in 1933, changing its name to Ringling School of Art, which still exists today with an enrollment of over 1,000 students--quite a journey from the first class of 75!","The background information and chronology provided is based off of the information in the collections as well as a handful of outside sources, such as The Southern newspaper and the Ringling College of Art and Design.","This collection may include materials that reflect certain cultural attitudes and opinions common during the time of their creation. Florida Southern College, Roux Library, and McKay Archives do not promote the attitudes depicted in these materials, but they are included to document the historical record.","The materials in this collection cover the approximate time period of the satellite programs, 1930-1933 and 1950-2008. While there are a handful of materials from MacDill and Palm Beach Air Force Bases, most of the materials in this collection are from the McCoy AFB-Orlando-Ocala program, the Port Charlotte/Charlotte-De Soto program, and the Ringling College of Art and Design.  Materials include, but are not limited to course bulletins, correspondence, brochures, and news articles.  Of special note is the correspondence in the Port Charlotte program, which includes letters to and from the Program Director(s) and the Board of Directors, as well as the correspondence in the Ringling College program. Additionally, three full years of The Coyote, the official newspaper of the Orlando program in the late 1970s are included.","This collection is owned by Florida Southern College.

In most cases, these campuses were small, having an administrative office and a few classrooms. The programs offered by FSC were as follows:  ","\nMacDill Air Force Base, Tampa:  The Florida Southern College of Opportunity began at MacDill AFB in the fall of 1950. Airmen and their dependents were offered seven week courses which awarded three credits each and were primarily held in the evenings.  Classes were taught by FSC professors who commuted to the base from Lakeland.  The program at MacDill lasted until the early 1960s.","\nMcCoy Air Force Base/FSC at Orlando/FSC Orlando-Ocala: For most of its history, this program was located on the west side of what is now the Orlando International Airport.  This was the longest-running series of FSC satellite programs, lasting from 1954 until 2008, and can be best looked at in four phases:\n    ","\tPinecastle Air Force Base: The October 14, 1954 issue of The Southern mentions classes being held here since 1954.  Very little is known about this program, including when it was terminated.  Of special note, Pinecastle AFB was renamed McCoy Air Force base in 1957. ","\n\tFSC at McCoy AFB: The program's official history lists its beginning as September, 1960, however as previously mentioned, classes were held as early as 1954 when the base was still known as Pinecastle.  Classes were held in the base education building, the alert facility, and a building located halfway between the two.  This last building was needed as aircrews serving on alert were required to remain within a certain \"reaction distance\" from their aircraft.  McCoy was a large Strategic Air Command base, and on numerous occasions classes were interrupted by nuclear alert drills.  More than 500 members of the military and civilian employees at McCoy could be taking classes at any one time, and classes met every weekday evening as well as Saturday mornings.  There was also what was known as a \"brown bag\" class, where professors would offer portions of a class during the official base lunch hour. As with the program at MacDill, some of the FSC professors from the main campus commuted to Orlando to teach.  This portion of the program lasted until the Air Force closed the base in 1974.\n ","\tFSC at Orlando/FSC Orlando-Ocala:  When the Air Force closed McCoy, the runways were ceded to the City of Orlando for use in what is now known as Orlando International Airport.  The west side of the base was ceded to the Navy for use as housing and other activities in support of its training center near Winter Park.  In 1974-1975, the college received permission to continue a similar program with the Navy as they had had with the Air Force.  Additionally, classes were opened for non-military affiliated civilians for the first time, assuring the program's continuance regardless of any future base closings. The Orlando program was geared towards working professionals, with majors in Accounting, Business Administration, Nursing, as well as a few social sciences. Students from FSC's main campus in Lakeland could also take courses in Orlando if needed. In the late 1990s/early 2000s, the college left its facilities at the airport and located on Rio Grande Avenue in the Oak Ridge area of Orlando.  In the early 2000s, the Orlando program expanded to include classes in Ocala.  The classes were held at what is now the College for Central Florida-Ocala campus.  As with the main program in Orlando, classes were geared towards working professionals and were primarily held in the evenings.  Classes in Business, Accounting, and Nursing were offered.  The Orlando-Ocala program ended in 2008.   \n ","Palm Beach Air Force Base:  Little is known about this program other than it commenced operations in 1955.
