From Wikipedia, the free Encyclopedia Pier Angeli (born Anna Maria Pierangeli) (June 19, 1932 - September 10, 1971) was an Italian-born actress who made her debut in "Domani é troppo tardi" (1949).
Born in Cagliari, Sardinia, Italy, during the 1950s she was under contract to MGM and was praised for her acting in the movie Somebody Up There Likes Me.
During the 1960s and until 1970 the actress returned to live and work in Europe. On September 10, 1971 she died of an overdose of barbiturates in Beverly Hills, California.
Well known for her romance with James Dean, the actress married twice. Her first marriage was to Damone and the second to Italian composer Armando Trovajoli.
