Elena Zareschi (stage name of Elina Lazzareschi)[1], like her husband, the actor Nino Crisman, takes her first steps in the world of Cinema after having matriculated (in 1938)[1] and successfully graduated at the Centro Sperimentale di Cinematografia in Rome.

She had leading roles in the films Il mercante di schiave, Don Giovanni, Gelosia and particularly in Rita da Cascia. She worked alongside her husband in M.A.S., Peccatori and in I contrabbandieri del mare.

She also aspired to parts suitable for her athletic physique, thanks to her extensive sports preparation.[3]

In the prose theater she acted as a dramatic, together with Benassi, Bragaglia and in the plays of Giulio Cesare and Sly by Forzano. She was an excellent interpreter, alongside Borboni, of Pirandelo's La vita che ti diedi, both on stage and on the radio, becoming the leading actress at Teatro delle Arti in the seasons 1948-'49.[2, 3]
