Life and career

The daughter of the stage actress Luisa Cei, she made her theatrical debut in 1922, in the company of Raffaele Niccoli. She later worked in several high-profile stage companies, including Emma Gramatica's and Ruggero Ruggeri's, until 1942, when she founded her own stage company. She made her film debut in 1933, in Villafranca, in which she is credited as Pia Torriani (from her husband's surname). Her older sister Dory was also an actress.
