Biography

Cynthia Klitbo was born on March 11, 1967, in Mexico City, to a Danish father and a Mexican mother. She began her television career in 1987 playing a secondary character in the telenovela "Como Duele Callar." "Amor en Silencio," "Mi Segunda Madre," "Yo Compro Esa Mujer," and "Cadenas de Amargura" soon followed.

After a brief hiatus in the mid-1990s, she returned to the small screen in "La Dueña," once again playing a villainess. Notable performances in "Alguna vez Tendremos alas," "El Privilegio de Amar," and "La Casa en la Playa" established Cynthia as one of the best known actresses of her generation.

Klitbo has a broad range of acting skills. Notable performances with deep psycholocigal interpretations are amazingly brought to screen by this actress. Stunning was her acting prowess in the telenovela "El Privilegio de Amar" where in a dramatic scene she shaved her head to show her antagonist character's insanity and defeat.

In 2005 Klitbo also worked as director of the telenovela Alborada produced by Carla Estrada. However, the two television personalities conflicted and Klitbo left the production days later. Later in the year she participated in the reality show Bailando por un sueño ("Dancing for a dream"), the Mexican version of Strictly Come Dancing, (the United States version is Dancing with the Stars).

On Tuesday, August 1, 2006 she gave birth to a 8.5 pound baby girl via caesarian section. She named her Elisa Fernanda.
