Eva Perón also know as Evita grew up in a poverty stricken family but made her wealth as a radio actress when she moved to Buenos Aires in her teenage years. Using her fame and riches, Eva acted as a role model to many. She initiated the Eva Perón Foundation giving aid to the poor and was also a women’s rights activist helping women in Argentina gain the right to vote.
A suburb of Buenos Aires that is named after her (Evita City) is in the shape of her profile, when viewing it from the air. She has had a musical by Andrew Lloyd Webber and a film starring Madonna made about her. As a salute to Eva Perón, we chose her as our day 4 daily doodle.
