Abstract

Despite being the first woman to join Academia Brasileira de Letras and be popularly recognized as a writer, Rachel de Queiroz (1910-2003) defined herself as a journalist. We present an essay with biographical content about her career in this occupation, emphasizing her role in the magazine O Cruzeiro, in which she maintained the weekly column Última Página between the years 1944 and 1975. As part of the methodological construction of the research, we did a survey of the chronicles in which the author discusses journalism and we propose some reflections.
