This is a list of Puerto Ricans in the continental United States and Hawaii, including people born in the United States proper of Puerto Rican descent and Puerto Ricans who live in the United States proper. Since those born in Puerto Rico are US citizens, it is easier to migrate to the United States proper from Puerto Rico than from anywhere else in Latin America. Currently, more than 5.5 million Puerto Ricans and their descendants live in the United States proper, significantly more than the population of Puerto Rico itself. The following list contains notable members of the Puerto Rican community.

The Aguinaldos and jibaro music of Borinquen have always been very close to my heart.   I always heard them and loved them. Their rhythms and sounds took me home (to Borinquen). Even though I have never been to Borinquen this music is a way to connect, to hear the sounds of my homeland. This music is the music that sings of the conditions that my family did experience in Borinquen. My father always told me that my grandfather loved (and still reminds me of my grandfather’s love of), the music of Ramito, Luisito, Moralito, Chuito El de Bayamon and the other Boricuajibaro singers. My father always instilled a love of the Musica Jibaro. Every year on my grandfather’s birthday we play the Jibaro Music he loved, for him. I think about the Grandfather, who I never met but I have always known, every time I listen to Aguinaldos and Jibaro music. I am very grateful to my grandfather for teaching my father about this music so that now, my brother, Hatuey, and I, the next generation can appreciate it and keep it alive for the generation after us.

Los Hermanos Morales: Ramito, Moralito and Luisito were born in the Bairoa subsection, of Caguas, Borinquen. His father was Juan Morales Diaz and his mother was  Leonarda Ramos, a sugarcane worker. The conditions of the childhood of Ramito, Moralito and Luisito was not uncommon in Puerto Rico in the 1920’s and 1930’s. Ramito went to school until the 4th grade, but had to leave school to help his parents who were raising 13 children, only 6 being theirs, 7 being “adopted”. Ramito is quoted saying in an interview in answer to the question, “Where did you study?” he said “I studied at the big university of life”. And when asked where he was born he an

Puerto Rican musician (born 1945)

In this Spanish name, the first or paternal surname is Feliciano and the second or maternal family name is García.

Musical artist

José Montserrate Feliciano García (Spanish pronunciation:[xoˈsefeliˈsjano]; born September 10, 1945) is a Puerto Rican musician. He recorded many international hits, including his rendition of the Doors' "Light My Fire" and his self-penned Christmas song "Feliz Navidad". Music genres he explores consist of fusion of many styles, such as Latin, blues, jazz, soul and rock music, created primarily with the help of his signature acoustic guitar sound.

In the United States, Feliciano became popular in the 1960s, particularly after his 1968 album Feliciano! reached number 2 on the music charts. Since then in his career, he released over 50 albums worldwide in both English and Spanish languages.

Early life and family

José Montserrate Feliciano Garcia was born on September 10, 1945, in Lares, Puerto Rico, the fourth child of eleven sons. He was born blind as a result of congenital glaucoma. He was first exposed to music at the age of three, playing on a cracker tin can while accompanying his uncle who played the cuatro. When Feliciano was five, his family moved to Spanish Harlem, New York City, where he made his first public appearance at the Teatro Puerto Rico in The Bronx.

Feliciano's knack for music became apparent when at age seven, he taught himself to play the accordion. About two years later, when he was nine years old, his father gave him his first guitar. He would play his guitar by himself in his room for up to 14 hours a day and would learn by listening to 1950s rock and roll, records of classical guitarists, and jazz players. Andrés Segovia and Wes Montgomery were among his favorites. As a teenager, Feliciano took classical guitar lessons with Harold Morris, a staff mu
