Timeline
Federico Andahazi (born June 6, 1963) is an Argentine writer and psychologist.
Federico Andahazi was born in Buenos Aires, Argentina, at Congreso, a very central neighborhood of the city.
He is the son of Bela Andahazi, an aristocratic Hungarian poet and psychoanalyst, and Juana Merlín, of Russian-Jewish ancestry.
He obtained a bachelor's degree in Psychology (University of Buenos Aires); he practiced psychoanalysis a few years, while he was working on his short stories.
In 1996, while Andahazi was the finalist of the Planeta Awards, his novel The Anatomist won the First Prize of the Fundación Fortabat.
However, the mentor and financial supporter of the contest, María Amalia Lacroze de Fortabat, announced her "disagreement" with the decision of the jury, through a request published in most newspapers of Buenos Aires, in which she stated that the novel "does not contribute to [the] exalt[ation of] the most high values of the human spirit".
The Fundación respected and implemented the decision of the jury, which included María Angélica Bosco, Raúl Castagnino, José María Castiñeira de Dios, María Granata and Eduardo Gudiño Kieffer, but the jury was subsequently dismissed by Amalia Lacroze de Fortabat and the literary competitions organized by the Fundación Fortabat have not been held again.
In the end, she agreed to give Andahazi the $15,000 award that went with the prize but not the prize itself.
The Anatomist was published by Editorial Planeta in 1997, translated into over thirty languages, and has sold millions of copies worldwide.
His second novel, Las piadosas (The Merciful Women), a Gothic fantasy set in Geneva, exploring the relationship between Lord Byron, his secretary Polidori and Mary Shelley, was published in 1998.

The three short stories begin in the same way and are located in similar settings of nineteenth-century Argentina.

He has delivered lectures in the Faculty of Journalism and Communication Sciences of the University of Moscow, Russia, and the University of Santos Ossa of Antofagasta, Chile.
He has also given talks in Stockholm, London, Paris, Istanbul and other cities of Europe, Latin America, and The United States.
