Juana la Cubana is a 93 year-old national treasure. We used to go see her on Friday nights at the Gato Tuerto, a teeny club in front of Havana’s Hotel Nacional— she’d shimmy up to unsuspecting men and grin deliciously, shamelessly at the ones who’d grab her waist and dance.

(Love her purple wig, here.)
