About Isabel Garcés

Lived 1901 – 1981 (aged 80). Isabel Garcés was a Spanish actor.

Isabel Garcés Cerezal (28 January 1901 – 3 February 1981) was a Spanish stage and film actress.

She is particularly remembered for being a regular sidekick (a grandmother or mother figure) in Marisol's movies: An Angel Has Arrived (1961), Marisol rumbo a Río (1963), Búsqueme a esa chica (1965), Las cuatro bodas de Marisol (1967), Solos los dos (1968). At only five years of age, she started performing at the Madrilenian Teatro del Príncipe as part of the children's troupe led by Jacinto Benavente. Her roles were that of typical sweet, absent-minded grandmother. In particular, she starred in many musical "child prodigy" comedies, playing a humorous counterpoint to child protagonists such as Marisol and Pili and Mili.

She died in Madrid on 3 February 1981, at the age of 80.
