Zulma Aurora Faiad (born February 21, 1944, in Buenos Aires, Argentina) is an Argentine vedette and actress.
Zulma Faiad grew up with her sister Virginia Faiad in the bosom of an Argentine middle-class family. Her father was Jacinto Faiad, of Lebanese descent. Her parents separated when she was still very young. Her father was an accountant, and worked several hours a day, so her mother, Aurora de Faiad was in charge of giving her artistic training. At age seven, she entered the school of the Teatro Colón, where she studied choreography and perfected her acting vocation with the theater.
At the beginning of the decade of the 1960, she began as an advertising model and her protagonist participation in a television advertisement of an oil brand gave birth to the affectionate popular nickname of "La Lechuguita" alluding to the characterization that she made. From the Teatro Maipo where she worked, she moved to the Teatro Nacional Cervantes.
She worked with comedians Juan Carlos Mesa and Adolfo Stray. She was one of the three famous "Singles" of Channel 13.

In Mexico, she made her debut on the theatrical stages in 1969, in a play along with Maria Victoria and Marco Antonio Muñiz.
In 1990, she participated as an actress in some television shows. Already withdrawn from the theater and from the television screen, since 2000 she hosted her own radio program at dawn, where she stood out for her Christian spiritual messages. She was also called by Marcelo Tinelli to be a juror at Bailando por un Sueño .
Since 2015, she performs in the Aldo Funes play, Mujeres de ceniza.
