Born from immigrant parents, as a teenager he joined SODRE, the Music, Theater and Radio National Organization in Uruguay. Since his early twenties he was Principal Stage Director. Worked with legendary conductors like Erich Kleiber and Arturo Toscanini, and theater masters like Louis Jouvet. Enormously cultured and read, he was also a playwright and translator from Latin and French. Married Maria O. Beceiro and had two sons: Daniel and Rafael, and a daughter, Ana Maria. In 1946 moved to Buenos Aires invited to work in the nascent movie industry in Argentina. He was most prolific during the bustling years of the studio system, the 50s and 60s. Throughout his life he continued to work and enjoy success as a stage director, as in his words, "theater was his true love". Later in life was also involved in television, a medium in which he produced his last staging. Among many awards received are Best Film and Best Director from the Argentine Cinema Academy; Best Film (Horizontes de Piedra), Karlovy Vary Festival (Czech Republic), and Best Film (Barcos de Papel), Venezia Children Movie Festival.
