Monica Echeverria Yañez (born September 2 ,1920, Santiago, Chile) is a Chilean journalist, writer, actress and a Literature professor. And she is still been called a "rebel" and "anarchist".[1]


First Years[editar]

Daughter of an aristocratic family - her parents were José Rafael Echeverría Larraín[2]​ and the writer María Flora Yáñez  and her grandfather was the politician Eliodoro Yáñez Ponce de León. As a child, she lived until she was eight years old in France, with her grandfather, who had to go into exile due to the dictatorship of General Carlos Ibáñez del Campo. When she returned to Chile, she had forgotten Spanish.

She studied at the Monjas Esclavas del Sagrado Corazón de Jesús, "retrograde school", as she would define it years later, and then, challenging his environment, she got into Pedagogical Institute of the Universidad de Chile, and then practiced for many years as a professor of Spanish.

She had dedicated twenty-two years of her life to teaching as a Literature professor. This activity did not prevent her from developing her vocation for theater where she participated as an actress, director and author in different works.

From 1974 to 1978 she had been in exile in Cambridge, England, where she taught literature and grammar at the Technical School. When she returned to Chile, she was in charge of the Centro Cultural Estación Mapocho

Marriage and sons[editar]

She married in 1944 to the architect and politician Fernando Castillo Velasco and they had four children[3]​ called Carmen, Cristián, Fernando José (one of the leaders of the so-called community or sect of Pirque), Javier (who died in a car accident at the beginning of the 70’s) and Consuelo.

Public Life[editar]

Monica Echeverria and her husband accept an invitation of the University of Cambridge to join their teaching staff in 1973. The next they were at England, while Cristián and Carmen fought clandestinely against the dictatorship of Augusto Pinochet. They returned in 1978.

During her time in the university, she became a fan of the theater and was the director of children's shows, writing pieces and co-founding, in 1955, the Teatro ICTUS. She stood out as director of children's theater and the most successful works were the serial of Quiquirico, El círculo encantado, Chumingo y el pirata de lata, Guatapique, Zambacanuta.

As a writer she published her first book, Antihistoria de un luchador, in 1993, it took eight years for her to finish this 500-page biography of the unionist Clotario Blest. Others, mostly novels based on real characters, such as Violeta Parra or General Pinochet, followed this work.
