Life before politics[edit]

Born in Los Angeles, California to an elite family, Astiazarán was born in the United States when his mother was visiting her father, who was a Mexican Consul in Los Angeles. His father was an accountant and started a chain of radio stations called Grupo Uniradio. Astiazaran's family first moved to Tijuana in the 1940s from the neighboring state of Sonora.[1]
