Bio
Hector La Fosse' is first-time novelist, Award Winning Author, Actor, Co-Executive Producer and motivational speaker. He was born in Brooklyn, New York and raised in Manhattan; however, he spent most of his adult life living in the Bronx, before moving and retiring to central Florida.
Hector is the youngest son of seven children. He came from poverty and struggled daily to survive an upbringing mired in abuse and abandonment.
As a teenager, Hector was inspired by a book, called, "Down These Mean Streets", written by Piri Thomas. Reading this book served as a pivotal moment in Hector's life. It was then that Hector dreamed of becoming a writer someday. It wasn't until forty-five years later that he would find his passion and make his dream become a reality.
As an adult, Hector became an international substance abuse counselor, Inventor, a businessman, community leader and a bounty hunter. While working with end-of-life AIDS patients, he wrote his first abstract in the Journal of Palliative Medicine with his colleagues. He took his first acting role as an OG Bronx Sicario in the movie "A FOOL's ERRAND," and is now in pre-production for a 6 part TV Mini Series inspired by the book No Regrets The Journey.
Riddled with anger and self-doubt, there was a time when Hector felt as if the walls were caving in on him. It was such a low point in his life that he had even contemplated committing suicide. Knowing that suicide wasn't the answer, Hector raced against the clock, before succumbing to those thoughts. He reflected on his circumstances, considered the outcome, and decided that it was time to take charge of his life and live with purpose.
Today, Hector believes that everything he has experienced thus far, was merely a stepping stone in his life's journey to bring him where he is today.
His new book called "No Regrets The Journey," is about coming of age and redemption. The story of one man's tragedy and survival; coming to terms with his past, removing the mask, and revealing the secrets of his life. It's a tell all book, and an inspirational story of hope and success.
