- Actress
Born Leonor Reig Vallès, Nina Reiggini was the star of famed Studio Films,
founded in 1915 by directors Alfredo Fontanals, Solà Mestres and
Domingo Ceret. She worked on 6 movies, from 1915 (when she was 5 years
old) to 1917. She is regarded as the spanish Shirley Temple and has a certain
cult following. Her change of luck came when her mother refused an
offer to work in Hollywood. After that, she retired from cinema and
started writing novels, published between 1943 and 1950. It is believed
that copies of original prints of her pictures do exist in the United
States.
