Born in Brazil but raised in São Miguel, Barbosa was a powerhouse of the arts, serving as the director of the weekly A Ilha for 32 years and becoming the Azores' most celebrated musical theatre (revue) author. The biography details his vast output, from the poetry of Coração às Mãos to his immensely popular theatre productions that reached migrant communities in the USA. This memorial remembers a man of artistic genius and immense kindness who, despite living in "holy poverty," enriched the Azorean soul with his talent. He is honoured today in the street names of Ponta Delgada
