Estela Durán (* February 22, 1914), Colombian writer and journalist, originally from Roldanillo, Valle del Cauca. Biography

She studied at the School of Fine Arts of Medellín in aesthetic arts. In the 1960s she worked as a Spanish and language teacher at the Calasans school in Medellín, and she also started writing articles for the newspaper El Colombiano. In 1976 he published the costumbrista work "Despojos y el cancionero" with the publishing house Círculo de Lectores.

In 1988 he published the novel "Rosalba", which maintains a style very similar to "Love in the Time of Cholera" by Gabriel García Márquez. This novel, which recounts the loves of an older woman, seems that it can not "pierce" the readers but keeps the imprint of the writer.

Estela also wrote in the newspaper El Tiempo, commissioned by Enrique Santos, director of that newspaper in 1984. Works and Reports
