Juan Carlos Distéfano
Juan Carlos Distéfano is born in Villa Celina, Buenos Aires. He is Laura Vicente and Julio Distéfano’s first child; his mother is of Spanish stock, and his father is an immigrant from Southern Italy. Soon afterwards, the family moves to Tapiales, Buenos Aires, where his parents open a shop whose sign read: “Groceries, food store, drinks and bocce lane”.
