Chino Rodriguez is an internationally acclaimed music producer, band leader, musician, manager, booking agent, record company executive, business consultant, and record label owner, specializing in Latin music, most notably Salsa and Latin jazz. He is recognized as one of the top impresarios of the Latin music industry.
Chino was born James Mui in New York City on February 2, 1954 in the Little Italy / Chinatown area of Manhattan to a Chinese father (Chueng Mui), who obtained U.S. citizenship by joining the Merchant Marines during World War II, and a third-generation Puerto Rican mother (Gloria Figueroa Rodriguez). He was raised by his Italian uncle in the Mulberry Street area of Little Italy and grew up listening to a constantly changing mix of international music. With such an interracial family background and the influence of a multicultural, multilingual urban environment, Chino is the poster child for America's cultural diversity.
