About Ellie Lambeti

Ellie Loukou (Greek: Έλλη Λούκου; 13 April 1926 – 3 September 1983), known professionally as Ellie Lambeti (Greek: Έλλη Λαμπέτη), was a Greek actress. == Family == Lambeti was born in 1926 in the village of Vilia, Attiki, to Kostas Loukos and Anastasia Stamati. She had six siblings. Her maternal grandfather was a Captain Stamatis who fought together with Kolokotronis in the Greek War of Independence, when the modern Greek democracy was created. In 1928, the family moved to Athens. During the Greco-Italian War, she moved to the big neoclassical style house on Delphon and Didotou street where she had been living all her life. During the Dekemvriana in December 1944, her mother, who was in the house at the time, was killed by a loose shot fired amidst the battle. This took a significant psychological toll on Lambeti, lasting well into her adult life. == Early career == Ellie studied theatre at Marika Kotopouli's drama school. She made her first steps on the stage at the time of German occupation of Greece.
