Magalhaes Pinto was born in Santo Antonio do Monte , in the state of Minas Gerais . He was the Governor of this state from 1961 to 1966. While governor, Magalhaes Pinto became the leading civilian in the opposition movement. In 1964, Magalhaes Pinto and Field Marshal Humberto de Alencar Castelo Branco , the chief of staff of the army, "emerged as the chief coordinators of the conspiracy" to depose President Joao Goulart by the Brazilian military . ^[1] This conspiracy proved successful, and ushered in "two decades of strict military rule ." ^[2]
