Hernando Téllez (22 March 1908 - 1966). Born and educated in Bogotá, Colombia, Téllez entered very early the world of journalism with which he is primarily identified having been on the staff of some of Colombia's most popular newspapers and magazines. It was not until 1950 with the publication of his short-story collection Cenizas al viento, that his name became more widely known. His tragicomic tales evidence the keen and extremely sensitive observer of contemporary life and more particularly of the anguishing reality of his native country. During Tellez's lifetime, Colombia suffered through several civil wars and military dictatorships, collectively called La Violencia (The Violence). Tellez was also a student of history and was aware of the three rebellions of the 1800s, which caused the country of Gran Colombia to be divided into the separate countries of Colombia, Venezuela and Ecuador. Tellez served in the Colombian Parliament and was later Colombia's ambassador to the United Nations.
Possibly the most famous work by Tellez was his short story "Espuma y nada más" (Just Lather, That's All). The story is widely read amongst American high school Spanish students and depicts a military general getting a shave. Stories
