Liana Del Balzo
Biography
Liana Del Balzo, an Italian film actress, had a career that extended across more than four decades, with about 90 film appearances from 1935 to 1979. Born in Buenos Aires, Argentina, in 1899, she made her screen debut only when she was in her forties, a very late start for an actress, yet she became one of the busiest character actresses in Italian cinema. Her parts were generally comic, and she was often cast in humorous supporting roles. Alongside her movie work she remained active in the theater and in operetta. Her filmography closes in 1979, the final year of that long span, and she died in Rome, Italy, in 1982.
