Biography

Athina Mertyri (Greek: Αθηνά Μερτύρη, Alexandroupolis 1931 - 24 November 2007) was a Greek actress. She played small roles in comedies. Her role as an ugly girl with Thanasis Vengos as her potential partner is very well known, as in the 1963 film "Tyfla na'hei o Marlon Brando", where she recites to the poet Vengos from a tree. In the last decade she also acted in theatrical performances. In 1999 she made her last film appearance in the film "Safe sex", in which she also sang the title song. Her daughter, Varvara Mertyri, is also an actress. She died on 24 November 2007 of a heart attack in obscurity since she herself did not want her death to be known publicly.
