She is beautiful and successful. Leads the life of an independent woman. She sings and dances beautifully. This is the megazvaz of Argentinean cinema Veronica Castro.
On October 19, 1952, Veronica Castro was born at the San Rafael Hospital (Mexico City). Veronica - the daughter of Fausto Sayenza and Socorro Castro Alba, has three brothers José Alberto, Fausto and Beatrice.
At twelve years old, the girl was able to become a beauty queen at a local competition. Addiction to show business was not an accident. Her paternal relatives were related to Mexican cinema.
Veronica already at a young age knew that success and happiness do not come on their own. She did not count on the support of relatives. She achieved everything in life herself. At school, the girl always stood out for her singing and acting skills. Castro was waiting for the occasion, which once in a lifetime comes to everyone.
Near the house of Veronica was the headquarters of one of the most respected Mexican parties, where the future actress met Pedro Luis Bartilotti, a candidate for deputy who traveled to his constituencies. At that time, the assistant to the deputy was Andres Soler, who had his own theater school.
The girl immediately realized that this was the very chance that she had been waiting for a very long time. She discarded her indecision and asked Andres to help her become an actress. The politician was not able to refuse amazement to the persistent young lady. In the same year, Veronica was not only enrolled in a theater school, but also received a scholarship with her younger sister.It was a little money, so the family continued to be poor. For this reason, the young student made a difficult decision, which her relatives did not like much. Veronica is naked for one of the local magazines. Her relatives were stunned, but Veronica understood that this act was necessary for her acting dream.
Creativity on television
In order to make money, Veronica undertook any work that turned out to be her. In Mexico at that time photonovels were in demand - small brochures on the pages of which a photograph and a short text were placed. So in 1966, Veronica began her career path. La romantica Samantha was the first photo-novel girl, created by Enrique Gow.
A little later, happiness smiled at Veronica, and she got into the television show "Ha ha", which was led by then-famous actor Manuel Valdez. A dazzling girl attracted his attention, and he helped her in her career growth. Veronica was constantly working on her speech technique, learning to sing. The result was not long in coming: Veronica received a diploma announcer. In addition, she began to conduct her own program on a Mexican radio station.
The energy and determination of the future artist on the way to a career bore fruit and in 1970 Castro won the "Face of the Year" competition. After which offers fell on the girl. And, in the end, Veronica hit the television screens.
Movie career
It is worth noting that Castro for a long time refused to star in soap operas, believing that this genre is not worth attention. But over time, she agreed. Veronica’s film career began in the popular television series Rich Also Cry, where she played a poor orphan. The series has been sold in more than 40 countries and translated into several languages. After this role, Veronica was recognized around the world.

Due to the growing fame as a world star, the actress began to record her music in different languages and began traveling around the world, performing in various places. In 1986, she performed in the Latin version of the song "We Are The World". She also released one of her most popular albums to date - "Simplemente Todo".
