She sat in the [Argentine Senate](/source/Argentine_Senate) representing [Santa Cruz Province](/source/Santa_Cruz_Province%2C_Argentina) in the majority block of the [Front for Victory](/source/Front_for_Victory). Forstmann was educated in [Buenos Aires](/source/Buenos_Aires) and [La Plata](/source/La_Plata). She moved to the oil town [Caleta Olivia](/source/Caleta_Olivia) in 1973 and worked locally in education and the arts. She became a city councillor in 1991. In 1993 Forstmann was elected to the provincial legislature of Santa Cruz. She was re-elected in 1997, 1999 and 2003. In the Santa Cruz Chamber of Deputies she was vice-president of the Justicialist Party block from 1995, 2nd vice-president of the Chamber from 1999 and 1st vice-president from 2006. Due to various resignations and vacancies, she was acting President of the Chamber that year, and as a consequence was de facto vice-governor of the province. She was appointed to the national Senate in 2007 to fill the vacancy left since [Alicia Kirchner](/source/Alicia_Kirchner) left to join the government of President [Néstor Kirchner](/source/N%C3%A9stor_Kirchner) in August 2006. On 10 April 2009, Forstmann and her husband were travelling in a [four-wheel drive](/source/Four-wheel_drive) in Santa Cruz with a fishing guide. The car was swept away by the current of the [river Barrancosa](https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=River_Barrancosa&action=edit&redlink=1) . The two men were saved but Forstmann was dragged away and was found dead the next morning.[1] ## External links - [Senate profile](https://web.archive.org/web/20110531183128/http://www.senado.gov.ar/web/senadores/biografia.php?id_sena=395) ## References 1. **[^](#cite_ref-1)** [Falleció en Santa Cruz la senadora nacional del FPV](http://www.clarin.com/diario/2009/04/11/um/m-01895789.htm) [Archived](https://web.archive.org/web/20090414054832/http://www.clarin.com/diario/2009/04/11/um/m-01895789.htm) 2009-04-14 at the [Wayback Machine](/source/Wayback_Machine), *[Clarín](/source/Clar%C3%ADn_(Argentine_newspaper))*, 11 April 2009. v t e « 2003–2005 « National Senators of Argentina, 2005–2007 » 2007–2009 » Election cycles: 2001 2003 2005 President: Daniel Scioli Provisional President: José Pampuro FPV–PJ (26) BA: Fernández de Kirchner Pampuro DF: Leguizamón CC: Capitanich CH: Giusti Guinle CN: Viudes ER: Bar Martínez Pass de Cresto FM: Bortolozzi Mayans JY: Jenefes Fellner LR: Maza Quintela MZ: Jaque Perceval MN: Viana RN: Pichetto SA: Escudero López Arias SJ: Gioja Riofrío SL: Pérsico SC: Kirchner Fernández Forstmann PJ (17) BA: González CT: Saadi CB: Giri CN: Ríos LP: Gallego Marín LR: Menem NQ: Gallia SL: Negre de Alonso Rodríguez Saá SF: Latorre Reutemann SE: Castro Mera TF: Caparrós Daniele TM: Miranda UCR (15) DF: Terragno CC: Curletti Mastandrea CH: Massoni CN: Sánchez ER: Taffarel FM: Petcoff JY: Morales § LP: Marino MZ: Sanz RN: Abrameto Isidori SC: Martínez SE: Zavalía TF: Capos FCSC (2) CT: Castillo § Colombo de Acevedo FRC (2) MN: Closs § Vigo FR (2) TMS: Bussi § Pinchetti de Sierra Morales Salazar § MPN (2) NQ: Salvatori Sapag § Others (6) DF: Ibarra (Frepaso) CB: Rossi (FN) Urquía (UPC) SJ: Basualdo (PyT) SF: Giustiniani (PS) SA: Gómez Diez (PARES) § Bloc leaders; Italics = Resigned / died before term end v t e « 2007–2009 « National Senators of Argentina, 2009–2011 » 2011–2013 » Election cycles: 2005 2007 2009 President: Julio Cobos Provisional President: José Pampuro FPV–PJ (34) +FRC, PJ BA: Calcagno Pampuro DF: Filmus CT: Corpacci CC: Biancalani Corregido CH: Guinle ER: Guastavino Osuna FM: Bortolozzi Mayans JY: Jenefes Fellner LP: Higonet Verna § LR: Maza Quintela MZ: Bermejo MN: Torres Viana Vigo NQ: Fuentes Parrilli RN: Bongiorno Pichetto § SJ: Gioja Riofrío SL: Pérsico SC: Banicevich Fernández SE: Corradi TF: Colazo TM: Mansilla Rojkés de Alperovich UCR (13) CC: Nikisch CH: Cimadevilla CB: Mestre CN: Artaza ER: Vera FM: Petcoff § JY: Morales LP: Marino MZ: Montero Sanz RN: Verani SC: A.
