A longtime Dallas businessman, Carlos Fonts was a Cuban native living in exile in Florida when he joined the Bay of Pigs invasion force. Welcome Mr. Fonts for his first Living History presentation as we mark the 50th anniversary of the invasion. This program is view only. However, students will be encouraged to submit their own questions for Mr. Fonts in advance. A small selection of the best questions will be asked during the Q&A session at the end of the presentation!
