Died in 1923

Baldomero Lillo was born in Lota on 6 January 1867. According to Memoria Chilena, he left school early and became a clerk in the store of a mining company, a job that left him time to read. Settled in Santiago at the end of the century, he held an administrative post at the University of Chile and won a short-story competition in 1903. He withdrew from the university in 1917, suffering from tuberculosis, and died in San Bernardo on 10 September 1923.
