José Antonio Mayo Davó  was born in Malaga in 1990. He has a degree in tourism from the University of Malaga but history, cinema and writing have been his true passions since childhood. Ellos también estuvieron allí (’They Were There Too’) is his first literary venture, although he has written and contributed to various film blogs and radio shows like La Mandrágora. He has lived in Germany for the last few years, not far from some of the most significant sites relating to the Second World War in Europe.
