Nearly all high schools have at least one person that finds fame after graduation. For the schools in the Imperial Valley, there are many that have found it in the arts, sports, and entertainment industries. And when the individual tells people they are from El Centro, a common response is, “You’re from where?”

For this episode of : You’re From Where?”, we visited with smooth jazz recording artist and professor Walter Beasley about his growing up in El Centro, and his strong connection to Central Union High School and the Imperial Valley
