About this person

Henry Manuel Andrade is an American-Cape Verdean hurdler. He was one of the best hurdlers in the United States during the 1980s and early 1990s. After years of frustration in the American Olympic trials, he achieved his opportunity to compete in the Olympics by obtaining dual citizenship through his parents' ancestry and representing the Cape Verde Islands in the 1996 Summer Olympics at the age of 34. However, when his Olympic moment was to occur, he showed up with a severe injury and was unable to make it out of the heats. Earlier in the season, he set the Cape Verde national record in the 110m hurdles, 13.78, at the Modesto Relays.
