              LamarqueBorn in 
              Santa Fe, in 1909.
 She began as a theater actress when she was only seventeen years 
              old, with the National Theater Group. In 1927 she obtained her first 
              success as a tango singer. With the appearance of sound movies, 
              her career developed quickly. She played in Tango!, 
              and became into a movie star with Ayúdame 
              a vivir, whose script was written by her.
 After the movie Yo conocí a esa 
              mujer, she was hired exclussively by San Miguel studios, 
              for five years. During the filming of La 
              cabalgata del circo- with Hugo 
              del Carril - she had a few disagreements with the actress 
              Eva Duarte, future first lady of the country.
 With the arrival of the Peronism to the goverment (1946), she left 
              for Mexico where she settled down and gained even more fame than 
              she achieved in Argentina. There, she worked there in thirty movies, 
              as well as appearing in TV and theaters.
 In her last years, she restarted her personal shows in theaters 
              of Latin America, with huge success.
