Biography
Claude Brasseur (15 June 1936 – 22 December 2020) was a French actor.
Claude Brasseur was born in Neuilly-sur-Seine as Claude Pierre Espinasse, the son of actor Pierre Brasseur and actress Odette Joyeux. He was the godson of Ernest Hemingway and the father of Alexandre Brasseur.
He was a member of the French bobsleigh team in the 1960s and a winning Paris-Dakar rally competitor as co-pilot of Jacky Ickx.
From the late 1950s until two years before his death, Brasseur appeared in overall 150 film and television productions. One of his film roles was as Arthur in Jean-Luc Godard's Bande à part (1964). Brasseur played the title role in the early 1970s historical crime television series The New Adventures of Vidocq. A big commercial success were the comedies La Boum (1980) and La Boum 2 (1982), in which he played the father of Sophie Marceau's teenage character.
Brasseur died on 22 December 2020 at the age of 84. He is buried alongside his father at Pere Lachaise Cemetery in Paris.
