Biographie et Parcours de l'Auteur

Joe Navarro’s career began in displacement and observation. Born in Cienfuegos, Cuba, in 1953, he arrived in the United States as a child refugee shortly after the Bay of Pigs invasion, carrying little English but a sharpened sensitivity to gesture, tone, and intent. That early need to read rooms before he could fully read words became a durable habit. At 23, he was recruited into the FBI, where he spent the next quarter century in counterintelligence and counterterrorism and later became a founding member of the bureau’s Behavioral Analysis Program. Along the way he completed a master’s degree in international relations at Salve Regina University, giving academic structure to a professional life already centered on behavior, power, and risk.
