Pedro Zamora is one of the most popular and richest Reality Star who was born on February 29, 1972 in Diezmero, Cuba. Late reality star whose appearance on MTV’s The Real World: San Francisco helped to raise awareness about AIDS and LGBT issues across the nation. He was a respected educator who spoke before the United States Congress on the importance of AIDS education.

In 1980, when Zamora was eight, his family left Cuba for the United States during the Mariel Boat Lift. After five days of processing in Cuba, the entire family was to board when, hours before boarding, Cuban officials ruled that his four older brothers were too close to draft age and had to remain. His oldest sister, a communist official, chose to stay. The older siblings insisted, over their parents’ objections, to leave without them to give their younger siblings a better life. Zamora and his parents, his sister Mily, and his brother Jesús left in a boat filled with 250 people that had been built for half that number. The Zamoras settled in Hialeah, Florida, a suburb of Miami.
In late 1989, in his junior year of high school, 17-year-old Zamora donated blood during a Red Cross blood drive. A month later, he received a letter from the Red Cross informing him that his blood tested “reactive”, though it did not specify for what. Zamora decided to be tested for HIV, and on November 9, 1989 the results confirmed he was HIV-Positive.
He was raised by his older sister Mily after the death of his mother from skin cancer when he was thirteen.
