<span class="mw-page-title-main">Conny Méndez</span> Venezuelan composer, singer, writer, caricaturist and actress (1898–1979)

Juana María de la Concepción Méndez Guzmán, commonly referred as Conny Méndez was a Venezuelan composer, singer, writer, caricaturist, actress and metaphysicist. Her parents were the poet Eugenio Mendez y Mendoza and Lastenia Guzman. Her schooling was in Caracas and New York City. In New York, Mendez studied paint in the Art Student's and music in the New School of Music. During the 1920s she returned to Caracas, and collaborated as a writer and caricaturist in different magazines and newspapers, including El Nuevo Diario, Elite and Nosotras. These cartoons were collected in the work Bistury: Album de caricaturas (1931). In 1946 Mendez founded the Christian Metaphysics movement in Venezuela, under the influence of Count Saint-Germain, the European occultist. During the first years of the 1950s, she worked as an actress in "Camas separadas" of Terence Rattingam, directed by Horacio Peterson at the Caracas Theater Club. In 1955, she published her autobiography titled "Memorias de una loca" and in 1967 her book "Del guayuco al quepis". However, it was in the field of composition and musical interpretation, where she did her more fruitful work. Her folk and popular music included more than 40 compositions, like "Chucho y Ceferina", "La Negrita Marisol", "Venezuela Habla Cantando", and many others. She inspired Chabuca Granda, a Peruvian composer, with its songs dedicated to her country and to nature when at that time, in Peru, " people mainly sang to broken hearts” she says. These are songs that never go out of fashion. The miracle of the popular song is that different countries perform it in their own way.” The last years of her life were exclusively dedicated to the study of Christian metaphysics. In 1977 she published a series of works about this topic, among them: "Metafisica al alcance de todos" (1977) and "Misterios develados" (1979) and "El librito azul" .She was born in Caracas and died in Miami, Florida, United States.
