Francisco Amaro Rodrigues Adam (13 August 1983 – 16 April 2006) was a Portuguese actor and model, best known for his humorous role as Dino, short for Bernardino Esteves, in the Portuguese youth telenovela Morangos com Açúcar.
Adam grew up in the village of Runa, near Torres Vedras. At the age of 18, he moved to Lisbon to become a model, first for Elite Models and later for On Fashion. After 4 years of working for fashion and advertisement campaigns, Adam was cast in Morangos com Açúcar. He had a considerable following on the Internet, mostly from Portuguese teenage girls, who nicknamed him the Dino-man.
