Dora Cadavid began her artistic career as an announcer

Dora Cadavid was born in Medellín on November 23, 1937 and began her career narrating poetry in a local radio program of the ‘Voz de Antioquia’; Later, the producer Fausto Cabrera discovered her and took her to the theater and from there she jumped to television. In 1954 she participated in her first soap opera called ‘Espectros’. In addition to being an actress and broadcaster, she was also a singer.

The Colombian was the grandmother of the photographer, musician and actor Diego Cadavid, one of the most famous in the coffee country. The last years of her life, Dora remained in a nursing home, after the death of her son Moisés, a victim of cancer.

The decision was made by her, since despite being under the care of her nieces and daughter-in-law, she felt that over time she would become a burden for them.

“We were living in La Calera and then we began to travel throughout Colombia and when we reached a final destination, I think it was Cúcuta, I told them that I no longer wanted to continue traveling. My nieces were very worried that I lived alone. You know that one with age should not be alone anywhere and I do not want to be a burden to anyone “; she told the actress a while ago during an interview with Channel 1.
