Luz Valdez

Luz Valdez (born Milagros Bernardo; September 9, 1940), is a Filipina actress.

The Valdez screen name was given to her in 1958 by Narcisa de Leon, producer and co-founder of LVN Pictures, as she felt that Milagros Bernardo was too long and wanted her new contract player to have a name that would be easily remembered.
