Biography
Italian television personality and actress who started her career as a runway model in the WWII post-war. In 1954, she played Venus in the opera La Vestale by Luchino Visconti. She made her television debut in the program Vetrine, then, noticed by a RAI manager, in 1955 she was chosen as the assistant of Mike Bongiorno in the popular quiz show Lascia o raddoppia?.
