Title: S5EP11, A Cuban refugee, journalist, and author of memoir Property of the Revolution with Ana Hebra Flaster Summary: Ana Hebra Flaster, a Cuban refugee, journalist, and author of memoir Property of the Revolution has an incredible story. At age five, Ana fled Cuba in a 48-hour escape that upended her life, and rebuilt it in a New Hampshire mill town. Her memoir is funny, raw, and full of fierce love, told through the voices of the women who raised her. Think exile, identity, matriarchs, trauma, and survival… all with a sense of humor and a battle cry of “ponte guapa” (“make yourself brave”). Ana reminds us to talk to our elders. Hear their stories and learn from them. You can record them as well. Don't lose your legacy and history. Thank you, Ana, for your heartfelt conversation. Your whole family is so inspiring, endearing, and will stay in our hearts long after we read your book. Bio: Ana Hebra Flaster has written about Cuba and the Cuban American experience for national print and online media including The Washington Post, The Wall Street Journal, The New York Times, and the Boston Globe, as well as for her popular Substack, @CubaCurious. Her commentaries and storytelling have also aired on NPR and PBS’s Stories from the Stage. Property of the Revolution, her first book, has won early recognition in several international writing competitions, including being shortlisted in the 2023 Restless Book’s New Immigrant Writing Prize and the 2022 Cintas Creative Writing Fellowship. She loves watching birds, walking in the woods, and chatting with just about anyone. After almost forty years in the Boston area, she recently moved back to southern New Hampshire with her husband, Andy, and their Havenese pups, Luna and Beny Moré.
