Born Maria Antoniade, she graduated from the Sorbonne in Paris with a Doctor of Letters degree, then worked as a French language teacher.
On November 10, 1918, she was appointed Principal the Girls' Preparatory School for Teachers in Gherghița.[1] This educational unit was transformed into the Queen Marie Normal School for Girls in 1919, and in 1920 it moved to Ploiești under the leadership of Cândea to the place where it still operates today as the Queen Marie National Pedagogical College.[2][3]
She was married to Constantin Cândea, a professor of Chemistry and Rector at the Polytechnic University of Timișoara. Maria Cândea was the School director of the Queen Marie Normal School for Girls (now Queen Marie National Pedagogical College) until the autumn of 1930, when she left for Timișoara.[4] She died on April 16, 1974, at the age of 84 and was buried in the Bellu Cemetery, figure 4, in Bucharest.
