Nydia Caro was born in New York City of Puerto Rican parents. She attended the famous High School of The Performing Arts. After several brief stints in New York she returned to Puerto Rico where she quickly became a staple on local television. She recorded her first album in 1973, and won the OTI HispanicAmerican Song Festival in 1976, which made her an international name. She has occasionally made an appearance in films made in Puerto Rico like the Gene Hackman/Morgan Freeman drama Under Suspicion (2000).
Nydia Rodriguez Terracina, an active SAG-AFTRA member since 1974, was born in Santurce, Puerto Rico to Ramon Aurelio Cruz and Margarita R. M. Her father, Ramon, was the long-standing bodyguard of the late Governor of Puerto Rico, Luis Munoz Marin. At the age of three, her parents separated. Nydia moved to Chicago with her mother and older sister. During her younger years Nydia remembers moving back and forth from Chicago to Puerto Rico and, as a consequence, was lucky to study in Humacao, and Caguas, Puerto Rico. As a young woman she graduated from Patricia Stevens School of Modeling in Illinois while living in Chicago in the popular Humboldt Park neighborhood. At 18 years of age Nydia sang regularly in one of Chicago's first Hispanic religious programs for shut-ins on Channel 26 called Hoy Domingo. She was then invited to sing on WGN-TV on a special Christmas religious program sponsored by the Catholic Cardinal's Committee. Little did she know at the time, that much later at the age of 40, she would return to WGN-TV to host MBR: The Minority Business Report. She graduated from Tuley High School, also in Humboldt Park, and as destiny would have it again, Nydia would portray the part of Alexis' Mom in the feature film "Nothing Like the Holidays" http://www.nothingliketheholidays.com/ which depicts the life of a family living in the same neighborhood. She graduated from Chicago's renowned Roosevelt University with a Bachelor of Science in Business Administration. She worked as the Affirmative Action Manager for Montgomery Ward and Company and later McDonald's Corporation in Oakbrook, Illinois. While there, she graduated from McDonald's Hamburger University and that business experience, coupled with decades of film and television acting, catapulted her to host the worldwide (English-speaking) program MBR: The Minority Business Report for 10 consecutive years via WGN-TV. Her business experience made her a natural for discussing issues that involved and affected minority business on a national scope. By now she had won the 1980 Black and Hispanic Achiever of Industry Award. She studied film and television acting at the Chicago Actors' Studio. In 1990 Nydia received the Hispanic Nuestro Award for "First Local Hispanic Female in American Feature Film" for her role in the feature film "Code of Silence" starring Chuck Norris. Her favorite acting role was portrayed as Judge Surrillo in the blockbuster movie "The Dark Knight" starring Heath Ledger. Nydia's biggest challenge in life was finishing her last semester at Roosevelt in 1980 when her first husband of ten years died at 30 in a tragic motorcycle accident. Presently, when Nydia is not acting in film or television she is a role model as a substitute teacher in 14 diverse schools. Understanding the importance of an education, she incorporates her acting ability to bring the "lessons to life"! Nydia believes in staying connected with the students with whatever God-given talent she has and strives to make the students' learning experience an enjoyable and memorable one. She reminds her students of the importance of a bilingual education and inspires them with stories whereby she uses two languages (Spanish and English) to bring added value to her clients' film projects. As an actor since 1974 Nydia continues to work as a television and film actor and incorporates the craft into the educational field. She is re-married for the last 27 years and has two children and two grandchildren she adores. Her future plans are to land a principal role in a television series.
Nydia Stone has been married to Roger Stone since 1992.
This adorable character actress tended to play older than she really was on stage, screen and TV. Petite and quite pretty in her youth, Nydia Westman was born in 1902 to vaudevillian parents, actor-composer Theodore Westman and actress-playwright Lily Wren, and was thrust into the limelight at an early age as part of the family act ("Troubles of Joy"). Her younger brother, Theodore Westman Jr., was also an actor/writer who died tragically at a very young age in 1927. In her teens, Nydia grew in experience on the Orpheum, Ziegfeld and Keith circuits, and later made her Broadway debut with the comedy "Pigs" in 1924. A mainstay throughout the late 1920s, other prominent NY theater roles include "Two Girled Wanted" (1926), "Jonesy" (1929) and "Lysistrata" (1930). With the advent of sound, films soon became a viable medium for her as well. She began her movie career in 1932 featured in two dramas, Strange Justice (1932) and Manhattan Tower (1932) and, while she appeared in plenty more heavier material, including Success at Any Price (1934), Craig's Wife (1936) and The Gorgeous Hussy (1936), it was comedy that became her forte, lending cute and flighty foil support in Ladies Should Listen (1934) with Cary Grant, The Cat and the Canary (1939) with Bob Hope, The Remarkable Andrew (1942) with William Holden, and The Late George Apley (1947) with Ronald Colman, among others. Elsewhere, she gave her usual sparkle in the glossy musicals Sweet Adeline (1934), in which she joined Irene Dunne and others in the title song, Pennies from Heaven (1936), Hullabaloo (1940), The Chocolate Soldier (1941) and Hers to Hold (1943), playing assorted friends, maids, gossips and society types. In the post WWII years, Nydia veered away from filming and concentrated instead on stage and TV work. On Broadway, she appeared in "The Madwoman of Chaillot" (1948), "The Emperor's New Clothes" (1953) and "The Sleeping Prince" (1956), and went on to win an Obie Award for her off-Broadway eccentrics in Samuel Beckett's "Endgame" (1958). On TV, the small, round matron was featured in a number of showcase-type dramas and comedies and was a fluttery, twinkle-eyed delight on such programs as The Donna Reed Show (1958), Perry Mason (1957), The Addams Family (1964), The Munsters (1964), F Troop (1965), Family Affair (1966) and Bewitched (1964). She also appeared with relative frequency on the revamped Dragnet 1967 (1967) series in the 1960s. Nydia died of cancer in 1970 and was survived by her daughter.
