Jess Hahn

Actor | * 10/29/1921 († 76, 06/29/1998) | Terre Haute, Indiana (United States of America (USA))
Jesse Beryle Hahn (October 29, 1921 – June 29, 1998) was an American-French character actor who mostly starred in French films. ()

Jess Hahn's career is a bit of an oddity, being one of very few American actors to establish himself in French cinema in the early 1960's. He acted exclusively in French productions for the duration of his career with the exception of the Marlon Brando vehicle "The Night of the Following Day" in 1968, which was filmed in France. He also appeared in several international coproductions and low budget films by French exploitation director Jean Marie Pallardy, for which he is arguably best-known to contemporary audiences.
