In films from her teens, German leading lady Maria Perschy ascended to nominal stardom in the early 1960s. Like many attractive European actresses, Perschy tended to be shunted into sexpot roles in her English-language films: her character name in Howard Hawks' Man's Favorite Sport (1964), for example, was "Easy." By far, her best non-European film assignment was the part of Magda in John Huston's Freud (1962). Maria Perschy returned to Europe in late 1960s, where she appeared in many low-grade horror films.
