Boris Izaguirre in conversation with Ana Gavín

Boris Izaguirre made his way by penning an irreverent social column in his native Venezuela as well as writing soap opera scripts before settling in Spain, where over time he has carved out a unique niche for himself as a public figure. Behind that seemingly innate talent lies hard work and a lot of dedication.

He is one of the most well-known faces on the Spanish celebrity scene. Journalist, television presenter, scriptwriter, actor and writer; behind his light-hearted style lies an extremely cultured background. He found media stardom on the now legendary programme Crónicas marcianas, garnering much audience acclaim. Then came roles as presenter and contestant in a slew of entertainment programmes across an array of channels, such as MasterChef Celebrity, on La1, and El desafío, on Antena 3. He is a regular contributor to Bailando con las estrellas (Dancing with the Stars) and Tarde AR, both on Telecinco. He has also explored the realms of literature, having made his debut at a very young age with the novel El vuelo de los avestruces ; followed by notable novels including Azul petróleo and Planeta prize finalist, Villa diamante .

Izaguirre will talk about himself and his rise to the top with Ana Gavín, director of Editorial Relations at Grupo Planeta.
