== Life ==
Miguelito Valdés was born as Miguel Ángel Eugenio Lázaro Zacarías Izquierdo Valdés Hernández〔Billboard April 25, 1942〕 on September 6, 1912 in Havana. His father was Spanish and his mother was Mexican from Yucatán. He was born in Belén (in Old Havana), and moved to another barrio, Cayo Hueso (in Centro Habana), when his father died. In his youth he worked as an auto mechanic and was a good amateur boxer. In 1934 he won the Amateur Championship of Cuba at his weight. One of his closest friends from his days in the barrio was Chano Pozo, and in his singing style he has been called "as black a white guy as you would meet in Havana".〔Sublette, Ned. ''Cuba and Its Music: From the First Drums to the Mambo'', p. 440. Chicago, Ill. 2004.〕 In 1936 he married Vera Eskildsen, an aristocrate from Panama city with whom he had a son, Juan Miguel Valdés Eskildsen. In 1968 he lived in Palm Springs, California.
