Life
Marturano started playing small roles as a teenager; so he played in 1946 in Vittorio de Sicas Schuhputzer and in 1949 in In den Klauen der Borgia . With Fellini's La Dolce Vita started his career in the late 1950s as an adult actor; About thirty supporting roles in adventurous films followed, including many spaghetti westerns , in which he sometimes appeared under the pseudonym Jean Martin - and should not be confused with the French actor of that name. After 1972 he could only be seen in very few roles, and not at all since 1987.
