Eva Perón (1948)

Biography

Argentine actress in radio and movies before her marriage to Juan Peron on 21 October 1945. As the First Lady from 1946 she helped him to rise to power and became one of the most influential women of her time. Beloved by her people, she was mourned by the nation at her death in 1952. Legendary, she was either a saint who loved the common people or a calculating whore who slept her way to power and exploitation, according to different accounts.

She created much of her own myth, saying that she'd been born in 1922 where it was actually 1919, one of five kids of a married rancher and his mistress, a cook. When her dad died in 1926 she moved to Junin where her mother ran a boardinghouse. As young teenagers she and her girl friend were sexually assaulted by two young aristocrats and left naked by the side of the road. She left home at 15.

Not a great beauty, she nonetheless had transparent skin and vivid eyes. Over the next ten years she made her career as an actress on stage, radio and movies, using sex to get what she wanted. When she met Peron in 1943, he was a well-known career army officer and a widower, 48 to her 23-24. After a military coup, he was named Minister of Labor. Eva became his mistress and they married in 1945. The following year he was elected President of Argentina.

Photogenic and charismatic, Eva now learned to dress her role and use her power. Where Peron was almost devoid of personality, she blazed like a meteor for five years with her political machinations. When she aided the poor, and helped women get the vote for the first time in 1950, she became a national icon. The country was in an economic slump while the corrupt wealthy had power and control. Eva spoke for the common people.

Always frail, Eva had an emergency appendectomy in 1950 and was found to have uterine cancer. She refused to have a hysterectomy. She made a final public appearance on 5 June 1952 at Peron's second inauguration and died seven weeks later on 26 July 1952 in Buenos Aries.

When Peron was overthrown in 1955, Eva's preserved body was taken to a secret grave in Italy where it stayed until 23 September 1971. It was then taken back to Argentina, still perfectly preserved, with her blonde hair flowing like a halo around her face. Eva's body was buried in the Duarte family tomb in La Recoleta Cemetery, Buenos Aires.

Source Notes

Marion March quotes a letter from Jose Modern Astrology Lebron of Argentina (29 April 1985), "'La Vida De Eva Peron,' Tomo I: Testimonios para su historia, Buenos Aires, 1970, is a well documented biography from interviews, school reports and early documents as she was illegitimate and had the original B.C. destroyed. On p.13 is the time and date. The former mayor and publisher of the local paper said, 'I can assure you .... That Eva was born in General Viamonte, Los Toldos, province of Buenos Aires at a ranch near the Indian camp, 20 km off Los Toldos.'" The time given is 5:00 AM Cordoba time (9:17 AM GMT or 5:13:44 AM LMT.)

Biographer R.L. Greenut gives the same date in "Revolution Before Breakfast."

Penfield states, "In a new paperback, "Eva Evita" by Paul Montgomery, there is a statement which corroborates her date as May 7, 1919, Los Toledos, 5:00 AM."

(Formerly, PC stated that "private sources in Buenos Aires give May 17, 1919, Los Toledos, 3:00 AM LMT." In Mercury Hour 1/1980,

Dana Holliday reports that a Thames TV program "Queen of Hearts," June 1979 stated that she was born May 17, 1917, early in the morning." Constance Mayer has a chart for May 17, 1908, 5:10 PM LMT from an astrology magazine. Neither of these 1917 references give sources.

(Current Biography obit gives 7 May 1919.) Glenn Perry notes in February 2004 that there are some web sites that give her birth date as 21 November 1919. (PT notes that this ADB record had a birth year of 1908; in June 2007 she changed it to 1919 based on LMR's original notes, having assumed a typo).
