She started her career in 1955, singing in nightclubs and recording songs by Billy Blanco, Tom Jobim, Dolores Duran, Johnny Alf and others. She was also one of the first singers to perform bossa nova songs, such as "Chega de Saudade", "Samba de Uma Nota Só" and "Corcovado". She collaborated with many musicians, such as Carlos Lyra, Roberto Menescal, Luiz Bonfá, Barney Kessel and João Gilberto. She recorded several albums, both in Brazil and in the United States, and received critical acclaim for her expressive and elegant voice.
