Personal Details

Biography

Marcos Efron was born in Buenos Aires, Argentina, a city renowned for its vibrant culture and rich history, and later grew up in Houston, Texas, a bustling metropolis in the southern United States.

After completing a business degree at the University of Texas at Austin, a prestigious institution with a strong reputation for academic excellence, Marcos embarked on a career in investment banking in New York City, one of the world's leading financial hubs.

However, his entrepreneurial spirit and creative inclinations soon led him to make a significant career shift, as he opted to pursue more artistic endeavors and relocated to Los Angeles, a city synonymous with the American film and television industry.

During his tenure as a studio executive, Marcos had the opportunity to work on a diverse range of projects, including commercials and music videos for a variety of talented artists, such as Jewel and The Fates.

The success of his evocative short film "Common Practice," which premiered at the esteemed Sundance Film Festival, a premier showcase for independent filmmakers, ultimately inspired Marcos to leave the executive world behind and focus full-time on developing a slate of film and television projects.

Throughout his career, Marcos has been blessed with the unique advantage of holding dual USA/Argentina citizenship, allowing him to draw upon the rich cultural heritage of both nations. Additionally, he is proficient in two languages: Spanish, the official language of Argentina and many other countries in Central and South America, and Italian, a Romance language spoken by millions of people around the world.
