... It was about an Argentina woman named Eva Peron in the 1940s who became the most influential woman in Argentine history. ...
Eva Maria Duarte de Peron was born on May 7th, 1919 in a small town called Los Toldos, in Argentina. Eva’s mother was a mistress to Juan Duarte, Eva’s father, even though infidelity was a common during those times, unfortunately the mistresses and offspring were ridiculed. ... Even with all the set backs of her childhood, Eva always aspired to becoming an actress and left for Buenos Aires at the age of 15 to achieve this dream. ... In 1939, Eva got a radio acting job. ... As Eva climbed the top, her acting and speaking improved. ... Eva was pretty and learned how to speak well and be very poised. ... Eva’s ambition and perseverance stemmed from her childhood of being ridiculed and called a bastard. In 1944, Eva Met Colonel Juan Domingo Peron. ... Juan Peron was eventually appointed president. Unlike past history in Argentina, Eva was the
first women to be such a major influence to the people. While Juan was reaching out to the laborers, Eva was speaking to the women. Carlson identifies working class women as
“so far an untapped political resource” at the time Peron came in to power. ...
Eva chose the second way to power. ...
In 1948, the “Eva Peron” foundation was created for charity. Eva’s life was eventually ended by ovarian cancer in 1952. Eva Peron influenced thousands of women’s lives, not only in
Argentine, but across the world. ... If Eva Peron can win the hearts of her country, I believe any woman with the strengths, compassion and commitment Eva Peron had, could win the hearts of their own nation.
