Adele Cambria (12 July 1931, in Reggio Calabria – 5 November 2015, in Rome[1]) was an Italian journalist, writer and actress.
She was a central figure in Italian culture before, during, and after the 1968 movement alongside Camilla Cederna and Oriana Fallaci, and was close to the progressive left and to the Partito Radicale under Marco Pannella.
[3] An author of narrative works (and of other genres) intended for the theater,[4] she was a founder of the Teatro La Maddalena in Rome alongside Dacia Maraini.
In 1972 however, she was put on trial (later acquitted) for an article on the assassination of Luigi Calabresi, following which she quit for not sharing the opinion of the paper.
[6] Cambria first began her work as a journalist in 1956 writing for the newspaper Il Giorno, when it had just been founded by Gaetano Baldacci.
