From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Manding Claro is a Filipino Matinee idol (born 1940-) of LVN Pictures of the 50's paired with another matinee idol Nenita Vidal.

He later transferred to Sampaguita Pictures, where he made several more movies and ended his career as an actor to pursue a career as a singer. He was very successful as a singer for many years with tours throughout Asia.

He has since answered to a higher more divine calling, which he continues to this day.
