Here is the biography of Delia Boccardo:

Born on January 29, 1948, in Genoa, Italy, Delia Boccardo was an Italian actress who graced the screens for over four decades. She spent her early years in a small fishing village called Nervi before moving to Switzerland and London to study at colleges. After returning to Italy, she enrolled in a film school in Rome.

Delia made her film debut at the age of 18 in the "spaghetti western" Death Walks in Laredo (1967). She then co-starred with French actor Philippe Leroy in the action adventure drama L'occhio selvaggio (1967) before appearing in her third film, Inspector Clouseau (1968),alongside Alan Arkin.

She co-starred with some of Europe's most handsome and virile actors, including Franco Nero, Bekim Fehmiu, Giancarlo Giannini, Pierre Clémenti, Nino Manfredi, Scott Holden, Luc Merenda, and Jean-Claude Killy.

In the 1980s, Delia continued to appear in films, including the Italian-made Hercules (1983),starring Lou Ferrigno, and the TV-movie The Day Christ Died (1980). She also portrayed Mary Magdalene in the TV-movie The Day Christ Died (1980) and was part of the multi-star cast of the WWII historical drama The Assisi Underground (1985).

Since then, Delia has primarily appeared in Italian films, including Aphrodite (1982),Sposi (1988),The Return of Casanova (1992),Dichiarazioni d'amore (1994),Questo è il giardino (1999),and Sole negli occhi (2001).
