| Leonor Varela Biography |
Born Leonor Varela Palma in Santiago, Chile back on December 9, 1972 though she she was raised outside of her birthplace. Her parents, along with so many others, were busy trying to flee the military regime of the time so her childhood was filled with many different locales. From Costa Rica to Germany to Colorado and finally, France.
This diversity has proven to be a boon in her acting career as she has appeared in French, Chilean and American film productions. In fact it was her role in a Chilean soap opera (Tic-Tac) that led to her snagging the lead female role in the ABC mini-series Cleopatra. |
