Eva Santana

Eva Santana

She was born in Badalona, a city by the sea next to Barcelona, in a stormy July night. As far back as she can remembember. she writes and has always liked drawing too, but she didn’t know how to, so she started taking lessons some years ago. She took illustration lessons in a school for adults who, like herself, were very curious about things they had not learned in school. As a child, what she liked the most was reading. She used to walk down the street with her book open, colliding with the streetlights and breaking her glasses. She does believe that books help children to become marvelous people.

She worked as an editor for ARA Kids (a children’s magazine included in a newspaper) from 2011 until 2013 and for  Súpers! (a children’s magazine related to the Super3 TV channel).

Until July 2025, she was the editor of illustrated albums at Lata de Sal Editorial.
