Edmundo "Dante" S. Silverio Sr. (born October 17, 1937),[1][2] is a Filipino painter, former basketball coach and former champion race car driver.
Silverio rose to prominence in 1972, when he captured a rare double feat, winning the International Greenhills Grand Prix and, two months later, the Royal Rally of Champions.
Silverio became involved in basketball when he formed the Toyota Athletic Club (Komatsu Komets/Toyota Comets) in 1973 which participated in the MICAA.
In December 1979, Silverio resigned from the team after corporate management decided to reinstate players Ramon Fernandez, Ernesto Estrada and Abe King in Game 2 of the Invitational (3rd) Conference championship finals.
Toyota eventually won the title on December 15, 1979, under assistant coach Fort Acuña, beating arch-rival Crispa in four games.
