Gustavo Bolívar Moreno is a prolific Colombian author, screenwriter, and journalist, who was elected to the Senate of Colombia in 2018 as a member of the leftist Humane Colombia.
He published several books before the best-seller Sin Tetas No Hay Paraíso (Spanish for Without Tits There Is No Paradise) brought him international fame. There are three adaptations for television: a series produced by the Colombian company Caracol (2006), a version by RTI Colombia–Telemundo and a version by Spain's Telecinco. The novel also was adapted to a film directed by Bolívar himself.
He is also known for writing the novel El capo and later adapting it to a telenovela. He also was the creator of the telenovelas Victorinos, Ojo por ojo and Tres Caínes.
He is the only senator to donate his entire salary to social works and to a digital media, Cuarto de hora.[1]
