Margarita Sierra (January 5, 1936 - September 6, 1963), born as Maria Margarita Suarez Sierra in Madrid, Spain, was a singer, dancer, and actress perhaps best known for her supporting role as the nightclub-singing Cha Cha O'Brien on the early 1960s ABC/Warner Brothers television series, Surfside 6, with Troy Donahue, Van Williams, Lee Patterson, and Diane McBain.Episodes of Surfside 6 often featured Sierra singing, usually in English but occasionally in Spanish. The Cha Cha Twist, a song featured during the show's second and final season, was released as a single on Warner Brothers Records but did not enter the Billboard Top 100 chart.Sierra died in Hollywood, California, in 1963 at the age of twenty-seven from complications following heart surgery performed a day earlier. She is interred at Holy Cross Cemetery in Culver City, California.
A highly popular nightclub singer and star in Spain when she came to American series TV, Margarita supposedly pulled the diva act while appearing on Surfside 6 (1960) according to co-star Van Williams in an interview for the the January 2007 issue of "Classic Images" movie magazine. He claims she "could read the riot act to someone and she would treat people on the set badly." He said they eventually became pretty good friends once he "got her off her high horse".
