Paulo Salvador
Paulo Salvador (* 1965 in Sá da Bandeira , Angola ) is a Portuguese journalist .
Life
He was born in Sá da Bandeira in 1965, the son of Angola-born parents of Portuguese settlers. At the age of three, Paulo Salvador moved to Mariano Machado (now Ganda ), later to the capital Luanda , where he spent much of his youth. In connection with independence in 1975, he left Angola, like most Angolan Portuguese, and lived in Portugal from then on.
He graduated from the Instituto Superior de Ciências Sociais e Políticas , the Faculty of Social and Political Sciences at the Technical University of Lisbon . He then worked for radio and for various publications ( Sete , Universitário and Semanário ), and studied journalism at Columbia University in New York .
In 1989 he joined the public television broadcaster Rádio e Televisão de Portugal (RTP), where he worked as an editor, producer and announcer. After the introduction of private television in Portugal, he moved to Televisão Independente (TVI) in 1994 , where he has been editor-in-chief ever since.
He continues to work as a television journalist in front of the cameras, for example as a reporter at the funeral of Nelson Mandela , where he interviewed his daughter, or in critical reports on the business of ubiquitous reporting on celebrities.
Paulo Salvador is also a successful author, with publications on colonial Angola. After his initial success in 2004 with Era uma vez ... Angola (Eng. Once upon a time ... Angola), the three-volume illustrated book series Recordar Angola (Eng .: Remember Angola) followed , which appeared in several editions. A fourth and final volume in the series has been announced since 2012. In addition, he maintains a mostly nostalgic , bilingual website that deals with Angola up to independence and in particular collects and keeps alive the memories of former residents of Angola. He also maintains a blog on the subject.
