Ángel Faus Belau (9 February 1936[1] – 30 August 2020) was a Spanish journalist and professor emeritus of communications at the University of Navarre. He was considered a leading expert on European radio broadcasting.[2][3] In 1979, he became the first Spaniard to earn a doctorate in information sciences.[2][3][1]
In his book, "La radio en España (1896-1977). Una historia documental", Faus argued that Julio Cervera Baviera, a Spanish engineer, was the actual inventor of the radio, rather than Guglielmo Marconi.[2][3] Faus published more than 300 books, articles and scholarly journals during his career.[2]
Ángel Faus Belau died in Castellón de la Plana on 30 August 2020, at the age of 84.[3] He was survived by his wife, María Luis Alcaraz Castelló, and their five children - María Luisa, María Ángeles, Ángel, Begoña, and Luis Faus Alcaraz.[3] His funeral was held at Castelló Cathedral in Castellón de la Plana on 31 August 2020.[4]
