Biography

The daughter of Aníbal Pinto Santa Cruz (and direct descendant of the presidents Francisco Antonio Pinto and Aníbal Pinto Garmendia)[1] and the Nicaraguan-Chilean dancer Malucha Solari,[2] Malucha Pinto began her career on the telenovela Alguien por quien vivir, then debuted on Sábado Gigante in 1982 as Señorita Priscilla Caucaman in Los Eguiguren,[3] a segment that ran until early 1987. Her next appearance was on the comedy program De chincol a jote, where she originated several characters with actors such as Coca Guazzini and Gonzalo Robles. In 1992, Pinto, Guazzini, and Robles created a new comedy show on Televisión Nacional de Chile (TVN), Jaguar Yu, which was on the air until 1993.
Malucha Pinto and her husband Joaquín Eyzaguirre are the parents of a son with cerebral palsy named Tomás. In 1996, she wrote the book Cartas para Tomás dedicated to him. This remained on Chile's bestseller list for ten weeks and is now required reading in schools.[4] It was the basis of the play Tomás, in which Coca Guazzini played the role of Malucha.
In 1999 she won an APES Award for Best Actress for her role in the telenovela Cerro Alegre.[3]
In 2007, she played the leading role of Leonor Santa Cruz in the Chilevisión series Vivir con 10.[5]
Since 9 March 2011, she has been a member of the editorial committee of the weekly newspaper Cambio 21.[6]
In 2011, Pinto directed the play La pasionaria,[7] for which she was nominated for APES and Altazor Awards in 2012.[8] That year she was invited back onto Sábado Gigante with Coca Guazzini, Gonzalo Robles, and Cristián García-Huidobro to revive Los Eguiguren.
In 2016 she received the Elena Caffarena Award for her contribution to the defense of women's rights in Chile.[9] Also in 2016 she returned to Canal 13 to star in Preciosas, playing Marta, a woman in prison who is about to complete her sentence.[3]
