At the age of eleven she made her musical debut replacing a pianist that called in sick in her father’s orchestra. She came from a very musical family; her brothers and father were musicians. She studied in the Municipal Conservatory of Havana.

In the 1940s, she achieved her greatest recognition as a composer of boleros, guarachas and sones. Her songs included "Fiesta de besos", "Canción sin amor", "Increíble" and the most famous of all her works, "Dos gardenias", composed in 1945.[2] This last composition has been covered by many singers such as Daniel Santos, Antonio Machin, Pedro Vargas, Maria Rita, Ibrahim Ferrer, among others.
