Magda is an Egyptian actress. She started her career at the age of 15 using a pseudonym, so that her parents wouldn't know. Her breakthrough came in 1949 in the film “Al Naseh” (The Mentor), after which she went on to become one of the most prominent female actresses in Egyptian cinema history. Her most notable films include “Anf wa Thalath Oyoun” (A Nose and Three Ears), “Jamila” and “Ayna Omry” (Where's my Life?). She got married once to producer Ihab Nafia'a, and has one daughter (Ghada).
