Elaine Del Valle @brownsvillebred
The award-winning actor is a leading
producer and casting director. Propelling her career was an autobiographical
one-woman show that she wrote and starred in, Brownsville Bred. No stranger to HBO Latino, having played a “tía”
(aunt) in the English-language narrative film Elliot Loves, she negotiated a first of its kind deal for
interstitial programming with HBO Latino, "Gran’pa
Knows Best", a webseries she produces with director-creator, William D.
Caballero. She recently cast Comedy Central’s "Alternatino", the first Latino-centric sketch for their digital
channel. She also wrote, cast and produced, "The Bodega Series", a pilot about gentrification in Brooklyn through
the eyes of the Rivera family who own a Bushwick bodega. Be the first to see
the HBO Latino premiere episode, as well as a sneak preview of "The Bodega
Series", only at PRIME LATINO MEDIA Salón.
