Alberto Cutié

Alberto Cutié (born circa 1969 in Puerto Rico), better known as "Padre Alberto", is a Roman Catholic priest who has become a recognizable name due to his television. Born in Puerto Rico to parents of Cuban ancestry, Cutié began his foray into the media at an early age. He started to work as a deejay during his adolescence. While his passion for radio was great, it was not greater than his devotion to his faith, which eventually led to his ordination as a Catholic priest. He was ordained as a Catholic priest for the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Miami in 1995. He is the first Catholic priest to host a secular talk show both on radio and television. He has is columnist whose column appears in many Spanish newspapers throughout the United States and Latin America.

Cutié attracted great notoriety with his television debut in 1999 as the host of "Padre Alberto" (also known as "Cambia tu Vida con el Padre Alberto"), a daily talk show televised on the Telemundo network. After the show was cancelled, he later served as host of the weekly program "America en Vivo" on Telemundo International.

Since 2002, Padre Alberto has continued to host a weekly talk program called, "Hablando Claro con el Padre Alberto", which reaches millions of households throughout the United States, Canada, Spain and Latin America for EWTN "en español," which is part of the global network founded by Mother Angelica. In July 2003 he officiated at Celia Cruz's funeral mass in Miami.

Father Albert Cutié also published his first self-help book, "Real Life, Real Love" ( "Ama de Verda, Vive de Verdad" ) in January 2006. It sold thousands of copies and was a bestseller in the Spanish language market.

Padre Alberto has often been called "Father Oprah" by various publications such as Newsweek. Presently he is President and General Director of Radio Paz and Radio Peace Catholic 24-hour radio stations. He also serves as for radio programs "Al Dia" and "Linea Directa", and directs the daily operations of Pax Catholic Communications for the Archdiocese of Miami.
