In the 1960s she acted in films such as El correo del norte, La máscara de la muerte, and Los cuatro Juanes. In 1965 she appeared in her first telenovela: El abismo. In the 1970s, Gálvez acted in the films Cristo 70 [es] and Mama Dolores, while also appearing in telenovelas such as Ven conmigo and Doménica Montero.
During the 1980s, she acted in several telenovelas, such as Bodas de odio and Victoria.

That same year, Rosario Gálvez wrote a book about her childhood and her marriage to the actor and singer Luis Aguilar, who died in 1997.
