About this person

Kerstin Anita Marianne Ekberg was born in Sweden on 29 September 1931. Her beauty and curvaceous figure opened doors in American and European cinema, but it was Federico Fellini who gave her permanence: cast as Sylvia in La Dolce Vita in 1960, she turned one midnight fountain scene into iconography. She worked primarily in Italy after that, the country whose films had made her unforgettable, and became a permanent resident there in 1964. She died in Rome on 11 January 2015.
