Life
Suso Cecchi d'Amico was born as Giovanna Cecchi and was the daughter of writer Emilio Cecchi. In 1938, she married the musicologist Fedele D'Amico (nickname: Lele), son of theatre critic Silvio D'Amico. They had three children who have themselves made significant contributions to Italian culture: Masolino, Silvia, and Catherine. Suso Cecchi d'Amico died in Rome at the age of 96. She worked as a translator of literary works but was asked to read a screenplay, in order to give feedback. Later, she was asked to write one herself and her career as a screenwriter was launched.
