Little Known Spaghetti Western Actors ~ Maria Andersen

[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.]

Maria Andersen is another enigma. She appeared in eleven films and television appearances from 1961 to 1966 sometimes being billed as Mary Andersen. But no biographical information is available. From her appearance and name she appears to be of Scandinavian decent. Did she try and make a career in Spain and after five years and gave up and went a different direction? Did she marry and leave the business or did she return to where she came from and fade into obscurity.

Maria Andersen appeared in two Spaghetti westerns: “La venganza del Zorro” (Zorro the Avenger) as Juana in 1962 and “Gli eroi del West” (Heroes of the West) as Barbara in 1964.
