PhD in Film Theory and Analysis from the Pompeu Fabra University (Barcelona), with the thesis "A modern star: Jean Seberg, from Preminger to Garrel". Professor of Modern Cinema and History of Spanish Cinema at ESCAC (attached to the UB). I have participated in international conferences with papers about contemporary Spanish actresses, Spanish female film directors and pop icons from the Spanish cinema of the sixties as Marisol. I have published articles about Spanish folkloric musical film stars (an interview with Eva Woods Peiró about her book "White Gypsies:Race and Stardom in Spanish Film Musicals") and also I have collaborated in books with articles about American comedy actresses and actors ("Very Funny Things. Nueva Comedia americana" and "Adam Sandler: la infancia infinita"). Recently, I have joined the research project of Grup CINEMA (Department of Communication of Pompeu Fabra University), with the title: "Women desire under the Franco regime. The gesture of the actress under the censorial coercion". My research interests are: Actresses, Stars, Celebrity Studies, European stardom, Spanish cinema, Transnational Stardom, Gender Studies, Cultural Studies.
