Ramón A. Gonzales-Arango López as a kid. His grandmother saw his costumes for theater shows.

Ramón A. Gonzales-Arango López is a Puerto Rican who lives on the Seacoast. In 2022, he started the podcast Archipiélago Histórico, a project that shares Caribbean history in a way that’s easy to understand. He hosts and produces the podcast, after working at a restaurant. In addition to his podcasting, he paints and writes.

His artistic tendencies come from his mom, who worked as a police officer in Puerto Rico. She made sure he was involved in creative activities from a young age. But it was a blue book his grandmother had, filled with illustrations, and a box of National Geographic magazines that opened up a world of possibilities for him to explore.
