Cannot import pyarrow in pyspark

I am trying to use pyarrow in with pyspark. However when I try to execute 

import pyarrow

I receive the following error

    In [1]: import pyarrow
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
ImportError                               Traceback (most recent call last)

  Reason: image not found

I have tried to install pyarrow in a conda environment, downgrading to python 3.6 but without success.

Doe someone have any suggestion to solve the problem?

The Accepted answer didn't work for me as I'm in MacOs, I have been researching and the one that helped me was this one. For those that have the same problem but in MacOS.

brew update && brew upgrade
brew switch openssl 1.0.2s

Worked for me Catalina 10.15.4

It looks like PyArrow was not installed properly. So please try clean older packages and then install pyarrow again using below command,

   {{ conda install -c conda-forge pyarrow }}
