Timeline

1948

Nydia Caro (born June 7, 1948) is a Puerto Rican singer.

Caro was born in New York City to parents from Rincón, Puerto Rico, and initiated her career in the arts at a very young age while living in New York.

1964

She attended James Monroe H.S. where she graduated in 1964.

After completing high school, she enrolled in the New York School of Performing Arts in singing, dancing, and acting classes.

Caro made her debut in show business acting at an NBC television show and in 1964 released a Christmas-themed single on the Roulette Records label, "Ask Me What I Want for Christmas".

1967

In 1967, shortly after her father died, she moved to Puerto Rico and released her first album titled Dimelo tu.

She has released 20 internationally acclaimed albums and CDs ever since.

Caro enrolled at the University of Puerto Rico in literature to enhance her Spanish skills.

She was hired immediately to co-host a popular teen show by channel 2 ("Show Coca-Cola").

1970

The decade of the 1970s was very successful for Caro.

In 1970, she won the Festival de la Canción in Ibagué, Colombia, with the songs "Hermano tengo frío", composed by Karmen Mercado, the niece of actor and astrologer Walter Mercado, and "Pongo el Mundo en las Manos de un Niño" composed by Raoul Gonzalez.

1972

In 1972, she went to Tokyo, Japan, where she sang "La Borinqueña" before the world heavyweight boxing championship fight between George Foreman and José Roman.

Ring En Español remarked that her singing of the Puerto Rican national anthem probably lasted longer than the fight itself.

That same year, she made an appearance on Sesame Street with fellow Puerto Rican entertainers Raúl Juliá and Sonia Manzano.

1973

In 1973, she won one of the first awards in the Festival de Benidorm in Valencia, Spain, with the song "Vete Ya", composed by Julio Iglesias for her.

1974

In 1974, she won the third edition of the OTI Festival representing [[Puerto Rico in the OTI Festival cantar|italic=no}}". The song, composed by Caro and Riccardo Cerratto, caused some controversy in Puerto Rico for being the "anti-protest" song in that decade. Despite that, the song helped Caro further extend her popularity built on prior hit songs such as "Cuéntale", "Duerme", "Charly", "Copos de nieve" and "No Pudo Ser".

Besides Puerto Rico, Caro's relevance as a cultural icon is strongest in Chile, a country in which she has performed regularly since her 1974 appearance at the Viña del Mar International Song Festival.

She has appeared in Chilean telenovelas and has spent regular seasons living in the country.

1978

She released her self titled album in 1978 to critical acclaim, with Cash Box writing "she stands out in every song. Arangements by E. Leiva and R. Arusa are superb. The best cuts are "Un Pueblo Es", "A Quien Vas Enganar", "Precisamente Tu", "Oye Guitara Mia"and "Sugar Me". Should go high on the Latin American charts" which it subsequently did.

She also hosted her own television program, El Show de Nydia Caro, on Puerto Rican television.

Moreover, her reputation was helped by strong concert performances in prestigious venues; such as, Club Caribe and Club Tropicoro in San Juan, Carnegie Hall, the Lincoln Center in New York and many others around the world in countries throughout South America, Spain, Australia, Mexico, and Japan.

1998

In 1998, Caro released her album De amores luminosos to critical acclaim.

The album was produced by the Chilean producer Joakin Bello.

It features musical themes such as the song "Buscando Mis Amores", from the poems of Saint Teresa of Jesus, Luis de León and John of the Cross.

It blends musical instruments native to distant countries; such as, Tibet and India, together with instruments from Puerto Rico and South America.

1999

The effort sets her apart from other artists in Puerto Rico, as the first exponent of "alternative" or "new age" music, and was named as one of the 20 best recordings in 1999 by the National Foundation for Popular Culture in Puerto Rico.

2000

In 2000, she made her Hollywood debut, playing Isabelle in Under Suspicion, starring Gene Hackman and Morgan Freeman.

At one time, she was the spokesperson for Oil of Olay products in Puerto Rico.

Caro also has a reputation for being "classy", or elegantly sophisticated.

She parodied this image by appearing in an advertisement campaign run by the Banco Popular, where she reportedly sells her house to Puerto Rican rapper Tego Calderón, the contrast in their public images played upon for comic effect.
