James Gaines Jr

- Born in Hawaii to an African-American father, Filipina mother: "My first time in Philippines was in 1965, my father being a retired army officer was working for the US embassy then. It was on and off in the Philippines for me and my only sister. Because my Mother was working in Hawaii so we shuttled back and forth."
