Asia Argento

Asia Aria Anna Maria Vittoria Rossa Argento[1] (born September 20, 1975)[2] is an Italian television and film actress and director.

Argento was born in Rome. The City of Rome's register office refused to acknowledge Asia as an appropriate name, and instead officially inscribed her as Aria Argento.[1] Despite this, she uses the name Asia Argento professionally. ("Asia" is pronounced [ˈaːsia] in Italian). Her mother is actress Daria Nicolodi and her father is Dario Argento,[2] an Italian film director, producer and screenwriter well known for his work in the Italian giallo genre, and for his influence on modern horror and slasher movies. Her great-grandfather was composer Alfredo Casella.[3] Argento has said that as a child she was lonely and depressed due, in part, to her parents' work.[4] Her father used to read her his scripts as bedtimes stories.[5] At age eight, Asia published a book of poems.[5] At the age of fourteen, Asia ran away from her house.[4] She was also an introvert and read to make up for having no friends.[5]

In an interview with Filmmaker Magazine she stated that she was agoraphobic while she was writing Scarlet Diva and that she could not leave her apartment for months.[6] She said: "I was afraid to go out of my apartment for a long time, I could only go out to work."[6][7]
