Get to Know Gerry Garcia
Gerald Garcia’s name reflects the two sides of his background; “Garcia” from his father’s roots in rural Puerto Rico, and “Gerald” from the Austro-Romanian Jewish tradition of his mother’s family. His parents moved to California where they felt their family would be more accepted, but shortly after his birth they returned east to be closer to their own aging parents, settling in New Haven.
