Career

Rosario Gálvez became known in the 1950s for acting in several films such as Salón de belleza, Cuando me vaya, and Para siempre. In the 1960s she acted in films such as El correo del norte, La máscara de la muerte,[1] and Los cuatro Juanes. In 1965 she appeared in her first telenovela: El abismo. In the 1970s, Gálvez acted in the films Cristo 70 [es] and Mama Dolores,[3] while also appearing in telenovelas such as Ven conmigo and Doménica Montero.[3]

During the 1980s, she acted in several telenovelas, such as Bodas de odio and Victoria. In the 1990s she acted in the telenovelas Prisionera de amor and Mi pequeña traviesa, and in 1997 returned to film in Reclusorio.[3] Her last performance was in 2000 in an episode of the television series Mujer, Casos de la Vida Real. That same year, Rosario Gálvez wrote a book about her childhood and her marriage to the actor and singer Luis Aguilar, who died in 1997.[1] The inspiration for that book, ¿Cuentas de un rosario?, was the death of her husband, which was very painful for her.[4] Gálvez had already retired from acting for several years. She died from pneumonia in Mexico City at age 88.[3]
