Early life
She was born in Ronda, Málaga, Spain in 1902 and grew up there with her four sisters. Her father, Manuel Rojas Palmero, was a theater electrician, so from a very young age, she was in contact with the art world. Her mother died in 1917 so the family moved to Casablanca for economic reasons.
Career
In 1925, she appeared at the Romea Theatre of Madrid before touring Mexico and Cuba.[3] In 1929, she sang the song "Botarate" in Mosaico criollo, a film by Comminetti Edmo, which was the first tango sung in film.
Death
She died in Buenos Aires, Argentina in 1987.
