Biography

Ana Acosta was born in Buenos Aires on 4 July 1961, to a family of Canarian descent. She studied at the National Theater Conservatory, and began appearing in productions such as Los Borgia, a musical comedy by Pepe Cibrián Campoy [es]. She moved to television in 1990, when Jorge Guinzburg invited her to join the cast of Peor es nada [es]. She appeared on the program until 1993, receiving the Martín Fierro Award for artistic revelation in 1991.

She subsequently appeared in numerous plays, including the one-woman shows Cómo se rellena un bikini salvaje and My Brilliant Divorce. She received ACE and Sea Star Awards for her performance in the former.

Her mother, also named Ana, died in 2015.

In January 2021, Acosta appeared together with her daughter Talía in Casa Matriz. The play, written by Diana Raznovich and directed by Nicolás Pérez Costa [es], features a woman hiring several models of surrogate mother to help celebrate her 30th birthday. Acosta had previously played the part of the daughter in a 1993 production.
