Originally from Buenos Aires, Argentina, this seasoned actor has distinctly amassed a consistent yet eclectic body of work that started in the fascinating mid-70's in South America and subsequently continued in the USA and Europe.

Dreams & Goals

I keep daydreaming about the same ideals that kept me alive for well over four decades:

Never give up of being a working actor who doggedly persists in spreading out seeds of tolerance, joy and mutual understanding among people. In other words, becoming a worldwide multicultural ambassador, a film-theatre artist who can truly make a realistic, day-to-day contribution in the pursuit of the very FIRST WORLD PEACE...!
