Wanda Osiris
Anna Maria Menzio, known professionally as Wanda Osiris, was an Italian revue soubrette, actress and singer.
Life and career
Born in Rome, Italy, the daughter of a groom, she studied violin at a young age. She debuted on stage in 1923, in the revue Osvaldo mio mi fai morire. She was the major diva of the Italian revue between 1930s and 1950s, until a new type of soubrette, more saucy and comical, surfaced. She retired in 1975, and died of a heart attack in 1994, at the age of 89.
