About this Event
Barbara Caver grew up in South Carolina where singing in the church choir, writing in her notebook with her friend at recess, studying ballet, and performing in community theater were her first introductions to the art of storytelling.
An adventurer at heart, Barbara moved to New York at the age of 17 for college where she became a filmmaker and embarked on a twenty-five year career in the film and television industry. Barbara wears many hats as a seasoned production executive behind the scenes of many Oscar- and Emmy-award winning documentaries and series.
Now Barbara tells her own story with the December 2nd release of her travel memoir . An experienced traveler with nearly twenty countries visited, Barbara was 37 before she finally boarded a JetBlue flight from New York to Havana, the place where her mother was born. Cuba welcomed Barbara home and challenged her to ask the question, “Am I Cuban or not?” The experience confirmed for Barbara that travel leads to the richest gift of all: self-discovery and acceptance.
A Little Piece of Cuba: A Journey to Become Cubana-Americana is Barbara’s debut memoir and is available on December 2, 2025! Read an excerpt here
Part travel adventure, part ghost story, and part memoir, A Little Piece of Cuba: A Journey To Become Cubana-Americana is an imaginative and humorous personal journey through Barbara’s memories and experiences as she discovers that she is and has always been more Cuban than she thought.
