Rushdy Abaza is "widely considered one of the greatest names in the history of Arab cinema", with no less than 150 movies to his name.[1]

Family

edit

Rushdy Abaza was born in Sharqia, Egypt, to an Italian mother, Teresa Luigi, and an Egyptian father, Saïd Abaza, belonging to one of Egypt's most well-known families, the Abaza family, who are of maternal-Circassian heritage.[3][1] He had difficulty at the start because "[acting] was not allowed in ...[his] aristocratic family...and his father and the entire Abaza family strongly objected ...[but] he insisted."[1]

He is the best known Abaza family member and a household name in the Arab world due to the number of films he acted in that remain popular throughout the Arab world.[4][2]

Rushdy attended school at Collège Saint Marc in Alexandria.[1] From his father's side he had three half-sisters, Ragaa, Mounira, Zeinab and one half-brother, Fekri (an actor). From his mother's side, he had one half-brother, Hamed. His only child is a daughter, Qismat (Eismat).
