Background
Guinzburg was born on February 3, 1949[3] to a Jewish family in Buenos Aires. He finished high school in 1966 along with Carlos Abrevaya. In 1967, they both started studying Law and then Philosophy but dropped out. Later, in 1971, they became scriptwriters for Juan Carlos Mareco and some time later for the Fontana Show.
Career
Abrevaya and Guinzburg became members of Satiricón by 1972 and, according to writer Carlos Ulanovsky, both boys were funny, amiable and good natured.
In 1977, Guinzburg and Abrevaya started publishing a comic called Diógenes y el Linyera in Clarín, one of the most popular newspapers in Buenos Aires.
By the time, Tato Bores reappeared in television, both were in charge of writing his scripts.
Guinzburg created more than twenty radio shows such as: El ventilador and Vitamina G. He worked for several advertising agencies and won several awards for his labor. He starred, directed and produced many theater plays. In TV, he wrote and hosted numerous comedy, news and game shows like Peor es nada, El Legado, La Biblia y el Calefón and Mañanas Informales.
Death
Guinzburg died in the Mater Dei clinic on March 12, 2008.[1] He was in the clinic six days before his death because he suffered the fracture of a vertebra. He was affected by a pulmonary disease (a pleural effusion and a pneumonia generated from a lung cancer). He was 59 at the time of his death.
