Bud Spencer was born as Carlo Pedersoli on October
31st 1929 in Napoli, Italy. He started his career as
a swimmer and attended the Olympic Summergames in
both Helsinki, Finland in 1952 and Melbourne,
Australia in 1956. In 1951 he made his first movie
Quo Vadis.
In 1960 he gets married to Maria Amato
and she gives birth to their son, Guiseppe, in 1961
and in 1962 to a daughter, Christiana. He makes his
first movie with Mario Girotti in 1967
God forgives... I don’t
and at this time Carlo changes his
name to Bud Spencer. He chose that name because he is
a big fan of Spencer Tracy’s and because he thought
the English word "Bud" was very funny related to his
figure. In 1972 his youngest daughter, Diamante, was
born.
Today he lives in Rom, Italy still working as an
actor.
