The answer.... who is this guy? RUDOLPH VALENTINO
Unfortunately he died in 1926 at the age of 31... but his name is still a legend... the first sex symbol of the movie era... one of the most beautiful guys of all times... Rudolph Valentino. His mother was french and his father was italian, he was born in a small town in Puglia, Castellaneta.
It was may 6, 1895 when.... Rodolfo Alfonso Raffaello Pierre Filibert Guglielmi di Valentina d'Antonguolla was born.
In 1913 Rodolfo Guglielmi arrived at Ellis Island...
He started as a "taxi dancer" and he was paied proportionally to the time he spent dancing with customers. In 1917 he moved to L.A. where he joined an operetta company, and he continued to dance in smaller theatres. Valentino was building his reputation as a "latin lover", and with the movie "The son of The Sheik" he concretized his presence in the silent era. Unfortunately he died so young and he couldn't came out of the silent era expressing himself as the great actor he was, but he still remains an icon; an icon of sexuality, passion, beauty and love.
