Lucrezia Di Siena

Lucrezia Di Siena (fl. 1564), was a stage actress active in Rome and other locations in the Italian peninsula. She is known as one of the first, and possibly the very first, identified female actor in Europe since antiquity; at the very least, she is believed to have been the first woman in Europe to sign a theatrical contract.
