    Claude Dauphin ( Legrand; 19 August 1903 – 16 November 1978) was a French actor. He appeared in more than 130 films between 1930 and 1978, including Barbarella, The Quiet American, and a voice role in The Tale of the Fox, considered to be one of the earliest stop-motion animated films.

    Biography[edit]

    He was born in Corbeil-Essonnes, Essonne. His father was Maurice Étienne Legrand, a poet who wrote as Franc-Nohain,[1] and who was the librettist for Maurice Ravel's opera L'heure espagnole. His elder brother was the writer Jean Nohain.[citation needed]

    Dauphin's debut on film came in La Vagabonde (1930).[1] He debuted on stage in Chapeau Chinois (1930) in Paris.[2]

    Private life[edit]

    Dauphin married three times: first to Rosine Derean, then to the actress Maria Mauban with whom he had a child, Jean-Claude Dauphin, also an actor. Eventually, in 1955, Dauphin married American actress Norma Eberhardt.[3] The couple divided their time between Paris, Los Angeles, New York City and Ocean Township, New Jersey.[3][4] They remained together until Dauphin's death in Paris in 1978.[3]
