Romina Power was born in Los Angeles in 1951, but from an early age she grew up with the feeling that one home alone could never be enough. Her childhood took her between Mexico and England, across different languages and ever-changing customs. Very young, she learned to observe people and places, to listen to those who knew more than she did, and to test herself constantly. She loved the places she passed through, but the real turning point came when she arrived in Italy, in Rome, where she chose to stay and put down roots.
It was the beginning of the 1960s when Italian cinema found Romina. She made her debut at a very young age and entered an intense and formative season, working with leading directors and actors. In just a few years, she moved through many film sets and played a wide range of roles. It was an apprenticeship shaped by discipline, curiosity and decisive encounters, always lived with composure and deep respect for the work.
Music arrived almost alongside it, first as an intuition, then as an increasingly clear path. Her voice found space and resonance with a wide and devoted audience, and songs became the most natural way for her to tell her story. Melodies only seemingly simple, where lightness and introspection coexist, along with personal memories and everyday reflections.
Throughout the 1970s, 1980s and 1990s, Romina experienced a long period of great popularity, spanning records, television and international stages. Her artistic partnership with Al Bano deeply defined this chapter: beloved songs, major appearances, and worldwide tours that led them to represent Italy in important international settings, including the Eurovision Song Contest in 1976 with We Will Live It All Again and in 1985 with Magic Oh Magic, as well as several appearances at the Sanremo Music Festival:
It was a chapter lived intensely, yet without ever giving up the sense of reserve that would remain a constant in the way she inhabited the public stage.
Romina’s creativity has never been confined to a single language of expression. Over the years, she has placed writing and painting alongside music, publishing books and exhibiting her works. In 2006 she made her directorial debut with the short film Upaya. Each form of expression responds to the same need: to give shape to experience and transform what has been lived into something that can be shared.
Her bond with nature, with animals, and with respect for every form of life has always guided her choices. Alongside this runs a concrete humanitarian commitment, carried forward away from the spotlight, such as long-distance support for children in India through the association CARE TO ACTION.
Over time, meditation and spiritual inquiry became an essential part of her creative journey. In 2025 she published Pensieri profondamente semplici, an autobiographical alphabet that feels more like an inner dialogue than a traditional book, gathering reflections, memories and intuitions in the voice of someone who continues to ask questions without needing definitive answers.
Today, Romina Power continues to create, following a deeply personal rhythm shaped by listening and coherence. A life crossed by cinema, music, art and silence, held together by a gentle curiosity and a constant attention to what is essential. A journey that does not seek fixed definitions, but remains open, guided by the freedom to keep searching.
