She has been recognized internationally, being interviewed by The New York Times and El País.[2][3]

Since opening in 2006, Vivero's photoblog has garnered more than 36 million visits.[2] In 2008, she wrote her autobiography Yo, Cumbio. Since mid-2010, she has worked as a columnist for Telefe and in 2013 joined Almorzando con Mirtha Legrand as an assistant behind the scenes.
