(María del Carmen García Galisteo)
(1930- )
the beautiful Carmen Sevilla was born in Spain (Sevilla, to be exact) and began her career as a dancer. She made her film debut in Jalisco canta en Sevilla (1948), one of Jorge Negrete's two Spanish-made movies. She worked steadily in Spain and other European countries in the '50s and '60s, taking time out to appear in Mexican films like Gitana tenias que ser! (1952, with Pedro Infante), and La guerrillera de Villa (1967). Sevilla, who married composer Augusto Algueró, worked less frequently in the '70s.
