The artist, like this character born in the 19th century, were considered people who left an indelible mark, he with his art and she with her songs and way of being, because despite the years she always showed herself naturally as someone cool and fun.
He was born on June 18, 1943 in Bologna. At the age of eight, she left Bellaria-Igea Marina, where she lived, to take classes at the National Dance Academy.. She began her foray into the world of art almost by accident on a trip with her mother in Rome when a family friend who was a director chose her for a small role in the movie “Tormento del passato”, she was nine years old. It was thus that he began to study dance with cinematography at the same time.
Although she made her debut as an actress in 1960 in the film “La lunga notte del 1943” and in “I compagni” (1963), as well as in the French film “La chance et l’amour”, and In 1965 she moved to Hollywood after having signed a contract with 20th Century Fox, where she acted alongside Frank Sinatra in “Colonel Von Ryan”, she realized that the world of seventh art was not her thing and the life he led in Los Angeles was not what he expected, so he returned to Italy.
