Dora Gómez Bueno de Acuña (1903 in Luque – 1987) was a Paraguayan poet, journalist and radio personality.[1] She carried out her studies in Escuela Normal de Asunción, the institute where she graduated with the title of teacher.
Influenced by the Uruguayan poet Delmira Agustini, Dora Acuña's poetry celebrated life and nature with a frank eroticism.[2]
First Steps edit
She taught primary education for many years, and briefly contributed, between 1930 and 1931, to the 'Sociales' page of the 'El Orden' newspaper of Asunción.
Her participation in radio programs was extensive and fruitful, as an actress in children's programs, as a reciter of native and foreign poetry, through the innumerable radio series throughout her life, of which "Sobremesa de Gala" stands out, which was broadcast successfully by Radio Nacional, and by Radio Ñanduti, both stations of the Paraguayan capital.
