show all Originally from Artemisa, Cuba, Rene Lavan came on the Mariel boat 25 years ago along with his parents. He has one younger brother. A success in his own right, he has been featured on Latin shows such as Christina, Despierta America and Escandalo TV. He originally started as a DJ and a local model, and has performed in regional theater in pieces such as The Odd Couple. He has been working steadily since he graduated from Miami's prestigious New World School of the Arts, and has also studied with Uta Hagen. From the small screen to the big screen, Rene has shown that he can handle both mediums. Fluent in English and Spanish, he has also conquered both dominions with ease and is coming into his own here in the States. He is a true crossover performer and has recently started his own production company in order to promote Latin entertainment. He has appeared in publications such as Vanity Fair, Details, People (en espanol), W, Vanidades and Cosmopolitan. A hard worker in every sense, he is currently headlining and co-producing Latinologues on Broadway, and also appeared in a recent video from Reggaeton queen, Ivy Queen.
