Timeline
Power's interest in music was awakened in her childhood by American musicals from the 1950s, Mexican Mariachi bands, and Italian music from the 1960s.
In her early teens, Power discovered The Beatles and Bob Dylan, which inspired her to compose music.
After receiving a guitar as a birthday gift, she learned chords and wrote her first songs.
Romina Francesca Power (born October 2, 1951) is an American actress and singer born in Los Angeles, California.
After her parents divorced in 1956, Power and her younger sister Taryn were sent to live with their maternal grandmother in Mexico.
They went to live briefly with their mother and her new husband, Edmund Purdom, but were later sent to boarding schools in England, Switzerland, and Italy.
Among the schools Power attended was Cobham Hall School in Kent, England.
Later, both Power and her mother lived in a penthouse in the Roman quartiere of Parioli.
Power began trying out for film roles at age 12.
She made her screen debut at age 14 in the Italian film Menage all'italiana, starring alongside Ugo Tognazzi and Anna Moffo.
Power subsequently appeared in several films, achieving notoriety for acting in roles that highlighted her sex appeal.
In December 1966, her role in the film How I Learned to Love Women came under attack from the Italian public and government, as well as the Catholic Church.
Ludovico Montini, brother of Pope Paul VI, and other Christian Democratic senators charged that Power was forced to rehearse "lewd scenes for the film countless times."
The Vatican newspaper, L'Osservatore Romano, called the film's moral content dubious and opined that minors should have been banned from viewing it.
In an interview Power gave in 1966, she said that despite her typecasting she did not regard herself as a "Lolita."
In 1969, her starring role in the film Marquis de Sade: Justine resulted in its banning in Italy and in the seizure of all prints.
In a later interview in 1970, Power expressed regret for having let her mother choose sexually suggestive film roles for her.
In 1975, Power and her husband Albano "Al Bano" Carrisi founded the singing duo Al Bano and Romina Power, which became a sensation in Continental Europe and Latin America.
They released multiple albums in different languages and achieved 7th place for Italy in both the 1976 and 1985 Eurovision Song Contests.
Their biggest hits included "Felicità", "Sharazan", and "Ci sarà".
With ex-husband Albano Carrisi, she formed the music duo Al Bano & Romina Power, which gained popularity in many parts of the world during the 1980s.
She was named after Rome, where her parents had fallen in love; her middle name is in reference to the church of Santa Francesca Romana, the site of their wedding ceremony.
Initially, she grew up in the Bel Air neighborhood of Los Angeles.
In 1983, Power declined the role of Deborah in Once Upon a Time in America, which had been privately offered to her by the director Sergio Leone.
In 2005, Power was a judge in the Italian TV show Ballando con le Stelle.
Between 2006 and 2007, she organized exhibitions of her paintings, mainly in Milan.
At the same time she dedicated herself to directing her film Upaya.
In 2007, Power moved back to the United States, buying a house in Sedona, Arizona.
According to an interview she gave to the Italian press at the time, she felt to be perceived by the Italian public merely as a performer of "Il ballo del qua-qua" (a song for children), and that she found it difficult to establish herself in Italy as a painter and writer.
Power also stated that she was disturbed by the intrusive attention of the local press, which published multiple articles speculating about her private life and the disappearance of her daughter Ylenia.
Shortly after Power's relocation in 2008, her mother Linda Christian was diagnosed with colon cancer.
In a November 2009 interview she gave to Italian TV she stated she had considered, at least for some time, a possible return to Italy.
Power went to live in her mother's house in Palm Springs, where she remained until her mother's death on July 22, 2011.
In the fall of 2012 her album Da lontano was released, containing songs written in 1999.
In the summer of 2013, Power and Carrisi reunited for a concert performance in Moscow.
In 2015 they reunited again for a guest appearance at the Sanremo Festival.
Stanislas "Stash" Klossowski de Rola, the eldest son of the painter Balthus, proposed marriage to Power when she was 15.
She accepted and her mother approved, provided that he wait until Power turned 18 and was allowed to develop artistically first.
