María Luisa Carnelli (31 January 1898 - Buenos Aires, 4 May 1987) was an Argentine writer, poet, and journalist.[1] Carnelli was known for her tango lyrics.[2]

Carnelli was born in La Plata on 31 January 1898, a half block from the Paseo del Bosque city park. She was one of ten children of Julia Serna and Enrique Carnelli.[3] Her brothers listened to tango, but secretly as the parents opposed it. Carnelli adopted a leftist ideology. She married very young, had a son, but soon separated from her husband. She settled in Buenos Aires and earned a living as a journalist. Her articles were published in newspapers and magazines of the time: Crítica, Noticias Gráficas, Clarín, La Nación, El Hogar, Caras y Caretas, Fray Mocho, Atlántida, as well as others. She published her first book of poetry, Versos de mujer, in 1922 at the age of 24, and two years later, published a second on, Rama frágil.
