Biography and career


Raw started his career at a very young age, as one of the producers of the program 'Aqui e Agora' on the now defunct TV Tupi. In the world of radio, where he was widely respected and considered a reference in the "carioca voice", he started at Rádio Capital, but as a commercial contact.
He moved to the state of Paraná in 1982, at the invitation of journalist Ari Soares, to join the team of producers and presenters of the program 'Na Boca do Povo' in the afternoons of TV OM, then an affiliate of Bandeirantes, current CNT. It was in Curitiba that he started his successful radio career, standing out as a host at FM 104 (current Jovem Pan FM Curitiba).
He returned to Rio de Janeiro, where he became famous for his programs on the following radio stations: Antena1 FM and 98 FM (today Rádio Globo), the latter belonging to the Globo Radio System.
He worked in São Paulo for a short time in the early 1990s at X FM (now CBN São Paulo), where he presented the program "Show da X".
Raw also presented programs on TV, having worked in Rede Manchete in the programs 'Bike Show' and 'Shock', with several participations in television events and in the carnival.
Afterwards, he achieved consecration in the presentation of Globo de Ouro, in Rede Globo, from September 1989 to December 1989, with the actress Isabela Garcia. He returned to present the last program, on December 28, 1990, together with the actress Adriana Esteves.

Between 2006 and 2016 he worked at Super Rádio Tupi in Rio de Janeiro, of the Grupo Diários Associados, presenting 'Baú da Tupi' on Sundays from 00:00 to 03:00.
