Reportedly, Pier and James Dean were very much in love and wanted to marry, but her mother blocked the union because Dean wasn't Catholic, and helped arrange Pier's marriage to Vic Damone. Before she committed suicide, Pier wrote that Dean was the only man she had ever really loved. Twin sister of actress Marisa Pavan. Screen, stage, and television actress. Dated James Dean while he was filming East of Eden. Had one son with Vic Damone, Perry, who works as a radio DJ for 99.9 FM in Phoenix, Arizona. Kirk Douglas, in his autobiography The Ragman's Son, states he was engaged to Pier in the early 1950s. In different situations but almost simultaneously, Léonide Moguy and Vittorio de Sica chose her for her first role. When shooting a central scene with Michael Craig in "The Angry Silence", she was so immersed into her character that she left the script and started to shout in Italian. The scene was so impressive that it remained in the film.
