About
Anita Ekberg is a Swedish actress, model, and sex symbol. She is best known for her role as Sylvia in the Federico Fellini film La Dolce Vita, which features a scene of her cavorting in Rome's Trevi Fountain alongside Marcello Mastroianni. She worked as a fashion model. In 1950, Ekberg entered the Miss Malmö competition at her mother's urging leading to the Miss Sweden contest which she won. By the mid-1950s, after several modelling jobs, Ekberg finally broke into the film industry. She guest-starred in the short-lived TV series Casablanca and Private Secretary. She had a small part in the film Blood Alley starring John Wayne and Lauren Bacall. She appeared alongside the Dean Martin and Jerry Lewis comedy act in Artists and Models and Hollywood or Bust both for Paramount Pictures. For a while she was publicized as "Paramount's Marilyn Monroe." Ekberg has been married twice to actors. She was married to Anthony Steel from 1956 to 1959 and then to Rik Van Nutter in 1963; the couple divorced in 1975.
