Conrado San Martin, born Conrado Asan San Martín Prieto, left behind a career as an amateur boxer to take small roles in the theater in the company of Cayetano Luca de Tena and to act as an extra in some films. He made his film debut with Oro vil (1941) a film directed by Eduardo G. Maroto. During the 1940s, San Martín became an actor in secondary roles and was very much in demand in some of the most important Spanish film of that period: El fantasma y Doña Juanita (1944) directed by Rafael Gil, Los últimos de Filipinas (1945) directed by Antonio Román; La princesa de los Usinos (1947), by Luis Lucia and La Lola se va a los puertos (1947) and Locura de amor (1948), both films directed by Juan de Orduña. These roles led the Catalan production company Emisora films to give him an exclusive contract and he starred in the comedies: Siempre vuelve de madrugada (1948) (He always come back at dawn): Despertó su corazón Awoke his heart (1949) and Mi adorado Juan My beloved Juan (1949) a film directed by Jeronimo Mihura.
