in 1943. His father died when he was aged 11, and he took care of his family since then. He grew up influenced by American
and Italian Movies, and initially intended to make a name in Argentina and, from there, move to other countries. However, as his career developed, he did not follow this initial plan. He did not become a movie actor either, working mainly in TV telenovelas and productions by Alberto Migré

Arnaldo Andre made many protagonic couples with Luisa Kuliok. His character from Amo y Señor was noted for his slap
ping of his wife. The first slap was used in a promotion of the telenovela at its early stages, and the positive popular reception turned this into a cliché. He kept on slapping his fellow actresses in later telenovelas, and always slapped them for real; which caused an incident with Giselle Blondet
, who was not aware of it. Arnaldo André retired his slapping act after Carlos Monzón
was sentenced for the death of his wife, in a widely publicized trial. Nowadays, Arnaldo André thinks that he would not do a similar character, because of the public concern about corporal punishment in the home
. He also thinks that feminism
is greater now than in the 1980s, and a female character submissive to corporal punishment would not be considered realistic by the public anymore.
Arnaldo André worked as the main villain of the Valientes
telenovela, which is among the most successful Argentine telenovelas. This was the first time he played character of a villain
instead of a gentleman
