Ugo Bologna (11 September 1917 – 29 January 1998) was an Italian actor and voice actor.

Biography
Born in Milan, the son of a municipal employee and a housewife, in 1936 Bologna started working as a primary school teacher, and in 1939 he attended the course for cadet officers in the former italian city of Pula.
