Biography

Henriques studied accounting in her youth, although she had a passion for the arts. She became a radiographer at the age of 13 for the Ministry of Education alongside José Vasconcelos and Fernanda Montenegro. She spent some time in Argentina to shoot No me digas adiós and returned to Brazil to shoot Falta alguém no manicômio. She also opened a theatre company at the Teatro Cultura Artística in São Paulo.
