Little Known Spaghetti Western Actors ~ Betsy Bell

[These daily posts will cover little known actors or people that have appeared in more recent films and TV series. Various degrees of information that I was able to find will be given and anything that you can add would be appreciated.]

Betsy Bell was born Jutta Fug in Hamburg, Germany in 1943. She came to Italy around 1960 and won the Miss Tourism beauty contest and began a modeling career. She specialized in magazine covers and then appeared in small film roles and appeared in fotoromanzi magazines. She speaks English, French, Spanish and Italian and likes to play guitar. Betsy appeared in 8 films from 1960 to 1970 and was maybe best known for her appearance in “Il sepolcro dei re” (Daughter of Cleopatra) starring Deborah Paget in 1960.

The latest information I could find on her was an article in the magazine Terrenostre in November 2015.

Betsy appeared in only two Spaghetti westerns: “Quanto costa morire” (A Taste of Death) in 1968 as Glady’s Ransom and she sings “A King for a Day” and “Sartana nella valle degli avvoltoi” (Ballad of Death Valley) starring William Berger in 1970 as a saloon singer.
