Eva Robin's

Eva Robin's (born 10 December 1958) is an Italian actress, model, and activist. She is best known for her role in Dario Argento's 1982 horror film Tenebrae.

Eva was born male, but from the age of about thirteen, she says she felt she was female. When she was sixteen, she met a neighbor who was transgender and who introduced her to feminizing hormones. By the age of twenty-one, she was living as a transgender woman. Eva says she does not want sex reassignment surgery, saying she feels comfortable with her body and has no desire to change.

Contrary to conflicting mentions, Eva currently does spell her last name with an apostrophe in it. She took her nom de plume from a character in Italy's Diabolik comics, Eva Kant, and writer Harold Robbins. While on holiday in Sardinia, she saw the name "Robbins" spelled as "Robin's" and decided to take on that particular spelling.

The friendship with Paolo Villaggio gave her the opportunity to meet Marta Marzotto, Bianca Jagger, Christian Bulgari, and industrialists such as Barilla.
