Isa Danieli

Danieli's mother Rosa Moretti (stage name of Maria Santoro, widow of Amatucci, 1904-1959) was one of the voices of Radio Napoli with Tito Petralia's orchestra from 1928.

Born and raised in the theaters of the Neapolitan sceneggiata, where her mother and uncles Di Napoli worked, she made her debut at 14 with the stage name of Luisa Moretti, in 'O curniciello in the role of seduced and abandoned.

Her first time on television was again with Eduardo's company, in the role of Gemma in Miseria e nobiltà, broadcast live on 30 December 1955 from the Odeon Theatre in Milan.
