Abraham Cohen Bucureșteanu (1840 – January 24, 1877) was a Romanian poet, songwriter, and publicist.
[3][5] Bucureșteanu initially pursued a career in theatre and obtained some success as an actor, but at the urging of his family he shifted his focus to commerce.
[6] Between 1860 and 1874, Bucureșteanu wrote numerous satirical poems, epigrams, love songs, theatrical sketches, and anecdotes that were well received by the public across social classes.
[6] Alongside Benjamin F. Peixotto and others, Bucureșteanu was in 1872 a founder of the Infratirea Zion Jewish fraternal association, and served as its first president.
[6] Bucureșteanu led a turbulent personal life, which ultimately contributed to his physical decline and premature death from tuberculosis in 1877.
