About this person
His father accompanied Sarah Bernhardt on her first tour of America (1880-1881) and then on the European tour that followed. When Jean was fifteen in 1903, he made his stage debut under the training of Sarah Bernhardt. His first onscreen appearance was in the 1908 film The Assassination of the Duke of Guise. He also appeared in several film adaptations of Victor Hugo's plays The Hunchback of Notre-Dame (1911) and Les Misérables (1911). Both Jean and his father Edouard were the subjects of notable paintings created by Greek-French painter Théodore Jacques Ralli.
