Early life and education

[edit]

Aníbal Jaime Clara Caputi was born on 5 March 1965 in San José de Mayo, the capital city of the San José Department, to Aníbal Clara, a school teacher and his wife, also a school teacher.[2] He has two sisters: Isabel and Mercedes, a writer who was seen as a potential running mate for Daniel Martinez for the 2019 general election.[3] He attended Primary School No. 45, where he was president of the institute's Red Cross.[4]

He attended the Institute of Philosophy, Sciences and Letters, which would later be the Catholic University of Uruguay, to study journalism; he graduated with a Licentiate in Social Communication.[5]

Career

[edit]

He ventured into radio at the age of eight, when he won an award at CW 41 Broadcasting station in San José de Mayo and began helping answer phone calls.[6] In 1975, at the age of ten, he made his debut on the air with the program Casos, cosas de todo un poco, and five years later, when he was already a radio operator, he premiered the Sunday program Panorama, el programa distinto de la Radio San José, which was on the air almost three years.[7]

When he left the radio in his hometown to move to Montevideo to study journalism, he was hired by the Federated Agrarian Cooperatives to take care of the communication area.[7] He worked there during 10 years, and then was employed by the Press Office of the Ministry of Livestock, Agriculture and Fisheries.[8] In 1996 he was summoned by Sarandí 690 to serve as producer of the program En vivo y en directo and in 2001 he began to present the cultural program Sábado Sarandí, one of the most listened to on the station.[9] On April 5, 2004, he premiered the radio program Al pan pan, as co-host with Sergio Puglia.[10]

In May 2021 it was announced that Clara would leave the Al pan pan, being replaced by Ana María Mizrahi.[11] In March 2022, he replaced Claudia García as host of the morning show Buen Día produced by Channel 4.[12] On November 9, 2022, it was announced that Clara would replace Daniel Castro as news anchor on Channel 4's Telenoche newscast.[13] He began reading the news with Viviana Ruggiero and Emilio Izaguirre on January 16, 2023, in a renewal of the newscast.[14]
