Maria Eugénia (1 April 1927 – 25 August 2016) was a Portuguese stage and film actress. She appeared in seven Portuguese and Spanish films in the late 1940s. Eugénia appeared opposite the Italian actor Amedeo Nazzari in a couple of Barcelona-made films including the comedy Unexpected Conflict (1948).[1] She received an offer from Vittorio De Sica to work with him, but she turned it down.[2][3]

Eugénia came from an artistic family, and was the daughter of a musician. She retired from acting following her marriage. She is the mother of the Portuguese poet Fernando Pinto do Amaral.
