Biography: Ana Álvarez, is a Spanish actress and a model born on 19 November 1969 in Jerez de la Frontera, Cádiz. Álvarez moved to Madrid when she was about 13 years old. After she finished her studies, she entered the world of fashion and started in the movie business from being a model. When Ana was only 17, she went to Japan, hired by an agency where she worked for four months, then she moved to Paris and other European capital cities which only strengthened her career as a model.

Álvarez starred in a film called The dead mother with director Juanma Bajo Ulloa, co-starring Karra Ejalde and Silvia Marsó. The film is about a young intellectually disabled person who sees her mother assassinated in the house after she discovers a thief. In the spring of 1994, Ana worked with director Ricardo Franco in the comedy ¡"Oh, Cielos"! with Jesús Bonilla, el Gran Wyoming and Angela Molina. In 1995 she appeared in the Hispanic-German production Vivir al límite with film director Michael Guman, and later that same year Brujas came out, which starred Penélope Cruz and Beatriz Carvajal.
