Biography

Piero Attorrese was born in 1930 in Tortoreto and moved to Genova following his commitments with the Navy. During his competitive career he won several Italian titles. With his love of rowing and sport, he divided his time between Liguria (adopted land) and Abruzzo (native land). Attorrese’s only major international tournament was the 1952 Helsinki Olympics where, in the eights, he was eliminated in the repêchage.
