Nina Miranda (Uruguayan singer)

Nelly María Hunter, better known by her stage name Nina Miranda (November 8, 1925 – January 1, 2012) was a Uruguayan tango singer and composer who settled in Argentina in the early 1950s.

[4][5] She moved several times as a child, spending her teen years in the Cerrito de la Victoria neighborhood of Montevideo at 3463 Bruno Méndez Street.

She then joined a women's orchestra, “Las Golondrinas”, led by Teresita Añón, which featured tangos, milongas and waltzes in its songbook.

[2] In August 1955, she arrived in Buenos Aires to expand her artistic opportunities, aided by the journalist Augusto Bonardo, director of Montevideo's Radio El Espectador.

After Juan Perón left office and the borders with Uruguay were reopened, she flew back and forth between Buenos Aires and Montevideo to perform on Radio El Espectador with a sextet which was led by Oldimar Cáceres.
