Sandra Ravel (16 January 1910 – 13 August 1954) was an Italian film actress of the 1930s.[1]
She was born as Alessandra Winkelhauser Ratti in Milan, Italy in 1910 to a German father who was a chemical plant worker, and a Swiss mother from the Ratti family of Lugano.[2]
Ravel had a minor role in Together in the Dark, where she met her future husband. She was married in 1944 in Venice to the actor and entrepreneur Rodolfo Gucci.[2][3] Their only child, Maurizio (1948-1995), was named for his father's theatrical alter ego, "Maurizio D'Ancora".[2]
Sandra Ravel died in 1954, aged 44, from uterine cancer in her native Lombardy.[4]
