Born Tamás Fellegi on November 26, 1921 in Budapest, Hungary, Felleghy began his career in Hungarian theater, primarily as a director. Felleghy was one of several showpeople to flee the country after the Soviet takeover in 1956, and settled in Italy with his wife Liane Ger.
Though typically cast only in small roles, he worked with many of Italy's best and brightest filmmakers, including Mario Bava, Sergio Leone, Dario Argento, Tinto Brass, and Luciano Salce. On occasion, he graced big-budget Hollywood productions shot in Italy, where his multlingualism proved an asset.
