Ursula Davis is an alias used by Italian actress Pier Anna Quaglia. Her entry into the entertainment industry came through modeling and beauty pageants, which helped launch her into film and television work within Italy.
Davis began her screen career in the early 1960s, debuting in the sword-and-sandal epic “Brennus - Enemy of Rome”. She soon followed with roles in films such as “The Invincible Brothers Maciste”, earning attention for her poised screen presence and striking visual appeal. Over the decade, she amassed a compact yet diverse fifteen film career, including appearances in the Gothic horror title “An Angel for Satan” (1966) and the jungle adventure “Kong Island” (1968). Alongside her film work, Davis appeared in Italian magazines and television programs, enhancing her profile as a model and television personality. Despite her growing visibility, she did not pursue extensive international or mainstream film roles, choosing instead to remain within the orbit of European cinema. Her last film appearance was in 1976’s “Povero Cristo” afterwards she dropped out of sight.
Ursula supposedly appeared in only one Spaghetti western in an uncredited role in 1969’s “L'odio è il mio Dio” (Hate is My God). She appears in the credits, but no one has been able to spot her in the film.
