Felipe Pigna, born in Mercedes, Buenos Aires, in 1959, is an Argentine historian and writer.
Committed to popularizing history, Pigna is a CEO and writes for the historically-focused website El Historiador (The Historian). He is often seen in the media talking about historical subjects. He is the host of Vida y Vuelta, a television program of historical documentaries and interviews.
With Mario Pergolini, Pigna wrote, produced and hosted Algo Habran Hecho por la Historia Argentina, a TV show aired in 2005 (and later released in a set of DVDs) which combines documentary, humor and free reenactments of historical events. The show granted him a Martin Fierro award, and in his speech of acceptation he dedicated the price to some of his favourite historical national heroes, namely Mariano Moreno, Juan Jose Castelli, Manuel Belgrano and Manuel Dorrego.
