From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Caridad Bravo Adams (born on January 14, 1908 in Villahermosa, Tabasco – August 13, 1990 in Mexico City) is a prolific Mexican writer and the most famous telenovela writer worldwide.
She was born to a couple of Cuban actors and published her first book at the age of 16 titled Pétalos sueltos. She then moved back to Cuba with her parents and then back in Mexico where she kept writing and obtained a role in her only film Corazón bandolero (1934). She became a chai member of the Ateneo Mexicano de Mujeres and moved back to Cuba where she wrote the radionovela Yo no creo en los hombres which was adapted in Mexico for telenovelas in 1969 and 1988. Upon the rise of Fidel Castro as dictator she returned to Mexico where she would remain the rest of her life. Back in Mexico she wrote Corazón salvaje, a novel that has been adapted to the screen twice and as a telenovela four times (including once as Juan del Diablo in Puerto Rico). She then wrote La intrusa, Bodas de odio and other novels that earned her important awards.
