Biography

José Nieto was a Spanish actor whose screen career began in the silent era and lasted into the 1980s. He was born in Murcia. His film debut came in Florián Rey's El Lazarillo de Tormes in 1925, and he went on to appear in eight more Spanish silent films, the last of them released in 1929. His first four talking pictures, made in 1931 and 1932, were Spanish-language American productions shot in Hollywood, among them Cuerpo y alma, directed by David Howard. He later worked on numerous foreign films and co-productions, including Robert Vernay's Andalousie (1951), King Vidor's Solomon and Sheba (1959) and Orson Welles's Chimes at Midnight (1965). He also appeared in El jardín de las delicias, a 1970 Spanish film by Carlos Saura. His final credit was Polvos mágicos, released in 1983, a year after he died.
