Isabel Lpez-quesada has been in the public eye for quite some time, mostly as the mother of a show biz heir who was married to the late Miguel Hidalgo, the former President of Mexico. Although she was busy working towards making her son a lawyer and president of their company, the public did not see her at all during the two presidential terms she served. She was a private Woman with no notoriety, but apparently now she has been chosen to star as a leading character in the upcoming movie of the same title as her son, played by Gael Garcillano.
Lpez-quesada was born in Mexico to parents who were from Spain and France, and she met Hidalgo when he was a young boy who was studying in Mexico City as a university student. He became a great buddy and helped her financially, when he developed a match with her. After they broke up, she moved to Paris, where Hidalgo became a famous writer and painter. Although she had a tough time adjusting to French culture, she made it a point to learn the language and get along better with most of the people there, especially the artists. After her husband left to study abroad, Isabel Lpez-quesada took up a job as a nanny in the art gallery and art consultancy, where she honed her skills as an artist while gaining experience in the profession.
Recently, she became a celebrity due to the hit series of movies “Amores Perros” (also produced by Miguel Hidalgo) and “Un descarte a studio” (also produced by Hidalgo). In these movies, she plays an older woman who is a formidable beauty, as depicted by her old age, elegant gowns and never-ending skirts. She stands out with her thick dark hair, bright eyes and gentle facial features. From the movie posters and TV commercials seen around the world, we can see how much she is capable of playing the role of an older woman, with all the wisdom and elegance necessary for playing such a role.
