Ana Beatriz Moser (born 14 August 1968) is a Brazilian former volleyball player and three-time Olympian. She helped make the Brazilian women's national volleyball team a dominant force in the 1990s.[1] She was an outside hitter.[2]

Moser was a member of the Brazilian national volleyball team for over a decade, serving as the team captain and winning silver medals at the 1994 FIVB World Championship and 1995 FIVB World Cup.[1] She then won squad's first Olympic medal at the 1996 Summer Olympics in Atlanta with a bronze medal.[3][4] She participated in the 1999 FIVB World Cup, helping Brazil win the bronze medal and qualify for the 2000 Summer Olympics in Sydney, and announced her retirement shortly after the Olympics.[5][6] She also participated in the 1988 Summer Olympics in Seoul and the 1992 Summer Olympics in Barcelona, where Brazil finished in sixth and fourth place, respectively.[1]

In 2009, Moser was inducted into the International Volleyball Hall of Fame.[1]

Personal life

After retirement, Moser was involved in various sports-related social projects.[1] In 2022, it was announced she would become the Minister of Sports in the incoming government of Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva.[7]

In September, 2023, she was dismissed from her position. Moser was the second female minister dismissed by President Lula to make room for the Centrão. The first was Daniela Carneiro, removed from the Ministry of Tourism at the request of União Brasil.[8][9][10]
