For much of her long acting career, dark-eyed classically beautiful Aliki Vouyouklaki was hailed as Greece's "national star." Vouyouklaki launched her professional career in films in 1953. She began appearing on-stage in 1959. In cinema she starred in 41 films; her most popular films include The Little Mouse (1954), which is the Greek version of My Fair Lady, and Aliki in the Navy (1963). While she was best-known in her native land, Vouyouklaki also had followings in Israel and Turkey. Screenings of her films were a favorite part of Great Britain's Edinburgh Festival. Vouyouklaki passed away from cancer in an Athens hospital on July 23, 1996; she was 63.
