Floricultores, Camaguey, Cuba, 2003

This family is posed outside their home in the small Cuban village of Camaguey. They are known as fl‰oricultores because they grow ‰flowers for a living, which they sell in the market. The woman on the right is a Sephardic Jew. Her family originally came from Spain, many generations ago, but migrated to Turkey and eventually to Cuba, where she was born. Her husband, on the left, was not born Jewish, but he converted to Judaism when they got married. In the middle of the picture, you can see their daughter, as well as the husbands parents.
