Biography

Claude Cerval (21 February 1921 – 25 July 1972) was a French film actor. He appeared in more than forty films from 1955 to 1971. After his secondary studies, he took drama lessons with, among others, Louis Jouvet. He then performed in cabarets and at the theater, notably at the Odéon, before joining the Théâtre national populaire. He worked in cinema and television as well. He was well remembered for his performance in the role of the detestable Count of Nansac in the ORTF series Jacquou le Croquant in 1969. He died of heart failure at the age of 51.
