About Andras Kepes Books
András Kepes needs no introduction in his home country where he first worked in radio, followed by a distinguished career in TV, subsequently producing and hosting cultural programmes and documentaries across the globe. These confirmed his profile as one of the most recognised faces and voices in Hungary on a wide range of topics including film, native and minority cultures in far-flung territories and South American literature. His interviews with a long list of interesting and illustrious guests together with many of his documentaries have become Hungarian media history classics. He has received a number of honours and awards, among them a Pulitzer Memorial Prize in 1994. Since 2010 András Kepes has been Dean of the Communication and Art Faculty of BKF (Budapest College of Communication and Business) where he is also Professor of Film and Media Studies. He has had several very popular non-fiction books published in Hungary where his first novel The Inflatable Buddha (Tövispuszta) is a bestseller.
