Born in EL Escorial (Madrid) in 1878, at the age of fourteen she wrote in her autobiographical notes: “I was drawn to the working classes, without being aware of this attraction.” She was not aware then that that was a beginning of the main thrust of her being and doing, the social vocation that always marked the direction of her life.

She was born in Linares in 1890 and died in Madrid in 1932. The biography of Isabel runs parallel to that of Antonia López Arista until 1912. That year Pedro Poveda asked her for special assistance at the Academy of Oviedo, which had started the year before and was the first one in the Work. In this city she competed her Education studies, which had been started in Córdoba.
