Dorothea Steinbruch is one of the Brazil's wealthiest women, Dorothea Steinbruch earned her money from her late husband who controlled one of Brazil's largest steel producers Companhia Siderurgica Nacional (CSN). After Dorothea's brother-in-law Eliezer Steinbruch (who also had control of CSN) died in 2008, she took over control of the company. Ever since, along with her three children, Dorothea shares control of Brazil's largest steelmakers with $9 billion in revenues and a $15 billion market capitalization.
