The community is invited to get a true insider’s view of filming with Huell Howser around the Golden State, with guest speaker Luis Fuerte at the Redlands Community Senior Center’s Dessert and Dialogue program from noon to 12:30 p.m. Monday, April 24. Fuerte was born in San Bernardino and raised in Colton. The retired cameraman has traveled across the United States and Europe to film television shows, films and news broadcasts. He served as an editor, lighting director, sound engineer and cameraman for the late Huell Howser, former host of KCET’s California’s Gold. He began to work with the Tennessee native in 1987. Fuerte is the winner of five Emmy awards, the Golden Mic for editing, the International Monitor Award, and has received awards from the State of California and the County of San Bernardino for speaking and mentoring youth in working class communities. In addition, Fuerte received awards from the Press Photographers Association of Greater Los Angeles, was named Latino of the Year 2008 and received the “Salt of the Earth” Award in 2001. Dessert and Dialogue is a free program open to the public that takes place after the senior nutritional lunch program at the Redlands Community Senior Center.
