Federico Benedetti was born in Ferrara and studied literature in Italy. He then moved to Paris, where he obtained a Master's in art history and archaeology and a second degree in modern literature. He went on to teach Italian in vocational training courses and to work as a translator and interpreter for major national and international publications and cultural centres, particularly in the fields of arts and the humanities. A jazz musician, he continues to play and teach jazz to conservatoire students. Today he lives in Italy, where he devotes himself to his passions of music and writing (in 2009 he published his first novel, Euridice) and teaches both French and Italian.
