Florence Buchsbaum (January 15, 1926 – April 1, 1996), officially registered as "Gertrude Rosenberg", was born in Strasbourg, France, from which, after a short stay in Portugal, she went with her parents to Brazil in 1940. She married Otto Buchsbaum in 1945, and later adopted "Florence" as her first name. She was a painter, a musician, a theater director and helped Otto Buchsbaum to lead the movement called "Teatro ao Encontro do Povo" (Theater for the People) and also shared the work to run the newspaper "Abertura Cultural" (Cultural Opening), which was the mainstay of the politico-ecological movement "Resistência Ecológica" (Ecological Resistance), founded by Otto Buchsbaum in the 1970s.
