He referred to alternative names such as José Guerra Alemán, his initials J.G.A. and his nickname Pepín. Many of his closest friends and family called him as Pepín. 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. 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.

She earned a Bachelor's degree in Education from Geneva College in 1943 and a M.S. degree in library science from Carnegie-Mellon University in Pittsburg, Pennsylvania in 1944. Vivian Hewitt worked as a librarian in Pittsburg and Atlanta, Georgia. She was the first black woman to serve as a librarian in the city of Pittsburgh. From 1963 to 1983, she was the chief librarian at the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace. Vivian was the first African American president of the Special Libraries Association (1978-1979). She was awarded the Distinguished Alumni Citation from the University of Pittsburgh-Carnegie Library School Alumni Association, Merit Award from Carnegie Mellon University, and the L.H.D. from Geneva College. In addition to being recognized by her alma maters, she was recognized by the American Library Association, and in 1984 she was inducted into the organization's Hall of Fame. In 2016, Queen Elizabeth II of Great Britain bestowed the title of Dame upon Hewitt for her work in the service of humanity. In 2017, Hewitt received an Honorary Doctor of Humane Letters degree at Carnegie Mellon University's 120th Commencement. She passed away on May 29, 2022.","John and Vivian Hewitt had one son, John Hewitt III (1952-2022).","The Hewitts moved to New York in 1951. In the 1960s, the Hewitts collected primarily Haitian art. In the 1970s, the Hewitts began exhibiting their collection of art in their Sugar Hill, Harlem home and became enmeshed in New York's art community. J. Eugene Grigsby, Vivian Hewitt's cousin and internationally acclaimed artist, introduced the couple to many artists. At that time the couple began collecting art by African American artists as well.","In 1998, the Hewitts sold 58 of their major works to the Bank of America which resulted in a travelling exhibition of the pieces at 25 museums. In 2009, the Bank of America donated the collection to the Harvey B. Gantt Center for African-American Arts and Culture.","In 1998, Vivian Hewitt attended two fundraisers for the construction of the African American Research Library and Cultural Center (AARLCC) in Fort Lauderdale, Florida. In 2002, artwork from her collection was exhibited at AARLCC in \"Celebration and Vision: The Hewitt Collection of African-American Art.\" Also in 2002, Vivian Hewitt donated 14 pieces of Haitian art from their collection to the Broward County Library in memory of her husband, John H. Hewitt, Jr. Along with the art she also donated personal papers as well as books and other supporting materials. In 2022, in celebration of the 20th anniversary of the opening of the African American Research Library and Cultural Center, the library held an exhibit titled \"Collectors' Duet: The Lifelong Librarianship of Vivian D. Hewitt and Dorothy Porter Wesley.\""],"prefercite_html_tesm":["\u003cp\u003eThe Vivian D. and John H.

In 1933 he enrolled in the architecture program at Czech Polytechnic University in Prague (České vysoké učení technické v Praze, ČVUT). During his time there, he was one of four members of a group of students who called themselves the Quadrifoliacs, who collectively worked on many architectural projects together, winning many prizes, and also worked commercially.

He began working on book dust jackets, exlibris, and other illustrations, and also designed puppet stage sets and puppet costumes. ","In 1941, Kubašta illustrated Joyful Stories for Children, written by Vlasta Burian, and Folk Tales of Africa, marking his turn towards another (and long-lasting) career in creating children's books.

In 1953, he began illustrating for Artia, where between 1955 and 1965 he illustrated and paper engineered over 90 books. In the 1970s, he paper engineered and illustrated five movie-tie in books for Walt Disney, and also began authoring his own stories. ","In addition to numerous commercial designs, it is estimated that he was responsible for creating over 300 books and that millions of copies in numerous languages have been published and distributed throughout the world.

He graduated in 1938 with a degree in architecture and engineering, and continued working with the Quadrifoliacs on projects including the design of the Hotel Sykovec.","In addition to his studies at the Polytechnic University and work with the Quadrifoliacs, Kubašta started teaching at the Rotter School of Graphic Design around 1937 and for a local plastics manufacturer, Blaklax designing household objects and advertising materials, transitioning from working as an architect to a graphic designer. He began working on book dust jackets, exlibris, and other illustrations, and also designed puppet stage sets and puppet costumes. ","In 1941, Kubašta illustrated Joyful Stories for Children, written by Vlasta Burian, and Folk Tales of Africa, marking his turn towards another (and long-lasting) career in creating children's books. In the 1940s and early 1950s, he worked primarily with the publishers Aventium and Dolezal, but his illustrations appeared in many works printed by many presses. In 1953, he began illustrating for Artia, where between 1955 and 1965 he illustrated and paper engineered over 90 books. In the 1970s, he paper engineered and illustrated five movie-tie in books for Walt Disney, and also began authoring his own stories. ","In addition to numerous commercial designs, it is estimated that he was responsible for creating over 300 books and that millions of copies in numerous languages have been published and distributed throughout the world. Despite the financial stability that his career brought him, Kubašta continued to work up until his death on July 7, 1992.","The Bienes Museum of the Modern Book (at the time known as the Bienes Center for the Literary Arts) began a pop-up book exhibition series in 2002, and as a result started actively collecting the works of Vojtěch Kubašta in 2003. In 2005, the Bienes held the third exhibition in the series, Pop-up, Illustrated Books, and Graphic Design of Czech Artist and Paper Engineer, Vojtěch Kubašta (1914-1992).

These stamps reflect the cultural, social, and political events that shaped Cuba during this transformative period. From being under Spanish colonial rule, to the establishment of the Cuban Republic, and the rise of the Cuban Revolution, these historical events are mirrored in the stamps themselves. In 1855, Cuba issued its first postage stamp under Spanish rule, marking the beginning of its postal service. During this period, the stamps were heavily influenced by Spain and featured imagery of the Spanish monarchy, reinforcing the connection between the Spanish Empire and Cuba.","As the 19th century came to a close, the Spanish-American War marked a pivotal moment for Cuba, shifting from a colony to an independent nation in 1902. This period saw significant changes on the island, reflected in stamps that showcased national pride, symbols of independence, and images celebrating Cuba's rich history and culture. Additionally, these stamps were used to promote tourism to Cuba. Throughout the 20th century, Cuba experienced global events such as World War I, World War II, and the Great Depression. These events contributed to political instability and frequent government changes, signaling a period of crisis on the island. During the Cold War, as the Soviet Union rose to power, the Cuban Revolution of 1959 began to reshape the nation. The stamps from this period reflect the country's transformation, with imagery of revolutionary figures like Castro and Cienfuegos, and messaging that glorified the revolution and its progress.","This collection captures the evolution of Cuban stamps as a form of communication and propaganda, mirroring the island's growing sense of self-identity and its changing relationship with foreign powers. The stamps feature images of Cuban culture, art, historical figures, national flora and fauna, and the tourism industry, all serving as tools to promote Cuba to the world. Preserving this collection provides an opportunity to explore how Cuba transformed over the course of a century. Researchers can examine the shifting political ideologies, international relations, and national identities reflected in the stamps. The Cuban Stamp Collection at FIU is not only a historical archive but also a testament to the cultural and social changes of the 20th century.","\nEl Cuban Stamp Collection del Florida International University (FIU) Special Collections ofrece una valiosa perspectiva de la historia de Cuba a través de los sellos postales que abarcan desde mediados del siglo XIX hasta mediados del siglo XX. Estos sellos reflejan los eventos culturales, sociales y políticos que dieron forma a Cuba durante este período transformador. Desde el dominio colonial español, pasando por la creación de la República Cubana, hasta el surgimiento de la Revolución Cubana, estos eventos históricos se reflejan en los sellos mismos. En 1855, Cuba emitió su primer sello postal bajo el dominio español, marcando el comienzo de su servicio postal. Durante este período, los sellos estuvieron fuertemente influenciados por España e incluían imágenes de la monarquía española, reforzando la conexión entre el Imperio Español y Cuba.","Al final del siglo XIX, la Guerra Hispanoamericana marcó un momento clave para Cuba, pasando de ser una colonia a una nación independiente en 1902. Este período vio cambios significativos en la isla, reflejados en los sellos que mostraban el orgullo nacional, símbolos de independencia e imágenes que celebraban la rica historia y cultura de Cuba. Además, estos sellos fueron utilizados para promover el turismo hacia Cuba. A lo largo del siglo XX, Cuba experimentó eventos globales como la Primera y Segunda Guerra Mundial, y la Gran Depresión. Estos eventos contribuyeron a la inestabilidad política y a los frecuentes cambios de gobierno, lo que señaló un período de crisis en la isla. Durante la Guerra Fría, con el auge de la Unión Soviética, la Revolución Cubana de 1959 comenzó a remodelar la nación. Los sellos de este período reflejan la transformación del país, con imágenes de figuras revolucionarias como Castro y Cienfuegos, y mensajes que glorificaban la revolución y su progreso.","Esta colección captura la evolución de los sellos cubanos como una forma de comunicación y propaganda, reflejando el creciente sentido de identidad nacional de la isla y su cambiante relación con las potencias extranjeras. Los sellos presentan imágenes de la cultura cubana, el arte, figuras históricas, la flora y fauna nacional, y la industria del turismo, todas sirviendo como herramientas para promover Cuba al mundo. Preservar esta colección brinda la oportunidad de explorar cómo Cuba se transformó a lo largo de un siglo. Los investigadores pueden examinar las ideologías políticas cambiantes, las relaciones internacionales y las identidades nacionales reflejadas en los sellos. La Colección de Sellos de Cuba en FIU no es solo un archivo histórico, sino también un testimonio de los cambios culturales y sociales del siglo XX.","The Cuban Stamp Collection at Florida International University (FIU) Special Collections is a comprehensive assortment of postage stamps throughout the history of Cuba during this transformative period during the 20th century.
