Yves Vincent

Biography

Yves Vincent was a French actor whose love of books brought him to Radio-Alger, where he acted in the station's company and sometimes announced. Born in France in 1921 and raised in Algeria, he made his first film in Cairo in 1944. After the Second World War he became a leading man in France, helped by his looks and presence. His roles included a knife-thrower in Pierre Chenal's La Foire aux Chimères, a doctor in La Maternelle, and in Méfiez-vous des Blondes he was a drug trafficker. In the late 1960s and early 1970s he was reduced to supporting Louis de Funès in three films and appearing in two soft porn flicks by Max Pécas. On stage he acted alongside Arletty in a French adaptation of A Streetcar Named Desire, and in La Dame aux Camélias he performed with Edwige Feuillère. He did much television work, often as authority figures. He retired in 1991 and died in 2016.
