- Biography:
- Mario Alegre was born in San Juan, Puerto Rico. After graduating from Puerto Rico's University of the Sacred Heart in 2005 with a BA in Journalism, he immediately started working for Primera Hora, the second highest circulation newspaper on the Caribbean island, and within a year he was writing weekly movie reviews. He became the paper’s chief film critic and remained as such for more than 12 years, covering events like the Toronto International Film Festival, a first for any local publication. In 2011, he started hosting a weekly movie segment on WMEG 106.9 La Mega (SBS Entertainment) on the number one radio show on national FM radio, “Los Reyes de la Punta”. In 2017, Mario launched his site, Próxima Tanda, where he still writes to this day.
