Libertad María de los Ángeles Vichich Blanco (Spanish pronunciation: [liβeɾˈtað ˈleβlaŋk]; 24 February 1938 – 29 April 2021^[1]) was an Argentine film actress, famous for starring in several erotic films during the 1960s.

Leblanc was one of Argentina's platinum blonde sex symbols in the 1960s and 1970s, the buxom blonde appeared in a number of adult-oriented films often with nudity or sexual content such as Harassed (Acosada)(1964).^[2]^[3] Many of her films were controversial; the 1968 film La Endemoniada was also known in English as A Woman Possessed, a vampirish horror film with explicit nudity. In 1967 she appeared in the lustful La Venus maldita. In 1969 she appeared in Deliciosamente amoral, again lined with controversy.

Leblanc also appeared in TV versions of Nana (the decimononic roman of Émile Zola), Lola Montès and Lady Hamilton.

She was offered a contract from Columbia Pictures, but her ex husband refused to let her leave with her daughter to another country, so she declined the offer. Also she was considered a "rival" of Isabel Sarli, who made the same style of films. Mirtha Legrand reunited both stars in the 90s, were they said that their "rivality" was only a publicity stunt of LeBlanc, and they remained friends until their death.

Personal life[]

She was married and divorced to producer Leonardo Barujel.
