One of the best actors of his generation, Eric Clark was born José Fernando del Torres in Asunción, Paraguay. On a night in November, 1955, in New York City, a legendary spirit entered into him, complicating his destiny—a destiny which would make him a star in the booming Italian film industry of the 50’s, 60’s and 70’s—in sword and sandal epics, spaghetti westerns and gialli.
