Anna Galiena (born December 22, 1954 in Rome) is an Italian actress, best known to English-speaking audiences for her appearances in "Le Mari de la coiffeuse", "Jamón, jamón" and "Being Human".

In her youth, Galiena starred in numerous off and on-Broadway shows, including several revivals of Shakespeare plays. She had made over a dozen films, mainly in her native Italy before her role in "Le Mari de la coiffeuse" brought her to international attention. She went on to appear inBigas Luna's "Jamón, jamón" and went on to make her mainstream Hollywood debut in the Bill Forsyth directed, Robin Williams starring "Being Human". The film was, however, a massive flop.

Since then, Galiena has worked in European cinema, where she is consistently in demand. With over 50 films and many television appearances to her credit, she currently has several films in production, including a prominent supporting role in the film "Virgin Territory", starring Hayden Christensen and Mischa Barton.

Galiena speaks Italian, English, Spanish, and French. In "Being Human" she speaks Friulian, a Romance language spoken in north-east Italy. She was a member of jury at the Berlin International Film Festival in 2003.
