Biography

Augusto Fraga (9 October 1910 – 6 January 2000), born in Lisbon, was a Portuguese film director.

During the 1930s, Fraga was a journalist, a critic and a cinematographic illustrator. He was also director of the magazine Cinéfilo from 1938 to 1939 and collaborated in the creation of Animatograph and World Graphic. In the following decade, he was editor of The Century until it closed and also of the supplement Success from the Lisbon Agenda.Fraga was a particularly hostile critic towards Nazi Germany's attempts at propaganda towards neutral Italy during World War II. This particularly focused on criticism of editing film that had been taken in a non-believable fashion, to the point that even a casual film-goer would be able to identify the changes.

Between 1948 and 1949 Fraga made short films in Spain as well as being a screenwriter. He would shift these professions to the radio in the 1950s. His two most successful films are [[O Tarzan do 5o Esquerdo]] and Sangue Toureiro.
