Life and career

Early life

Filiz Akın was born on 2 January 1943 in Ankara.[5][6] Her mother Habibe Leman Şaşırmaz was a tailor from Ankara, and her father Bekir Sami Akın was a judge from Afyonkarahisar.[5][7] Her mother was of Albanian descent on her paternal side, while her father was of Circassian descent on his maternal side.[8][9] She has a sister Günseli from her mother's second marriage.[5][10] Her grandmother, Halime Hanım's father was a clerk of Atatürk, and her stepfather was Atatürk's executive assistant and would ask Halime Hanım's help in Atatürk's attire for state occasions.[10] Filiz Akın lived in Beypazarı, where her father was working, until the age of 3.[11] At the age of 5, she started attending primary school.[5] She finished her primary education at Sarar Elementary School in Kızılay, Ankara.[12] Her parents divorced when she was 7 years old.[9]

Rise to fame

With the insistence of her friend Oya San's mother, Akın participated at a competition organized by Artist magazine and became the winner in 1962.[5] After she was told that she would receive the award only if she would play in the movie Akasyalar Açarken, she refused to accept it.[14] Journalists and filmmakers came from Istanbul to Ankara to convince her, but she still refused to accept the deal.[14] But when Memduh Ün came to Ankara and insisted on it, she accepted to play in the film.[14] She left the university and work and came to Istanbul with her mother.[14] Trusting the executives of the magazine and Memduh Ün, who convinced her to take the role, helped Akın start her film career.[14] She signed the agreement and after shooting her first film Akasyalar Açarken opposite Göksel Arsoy in 1962, the producers prepared a program for her during the entire year.[7]
