Actually the guy had quite an interesting life before all the Mime stuff apparently.


With the outbreak of the Second World War, the family had two hours in which to pack up and flee before the advancing Germans. Marcel and his elder brother Alain ended up in Limoges, where they joined the French underground movement.

One of Marcel's tasks was to alter the ages inscribed on the identity cards of other French youths, so as to save them from being sent to the German labour camps. He also led numbers of French children, whose parents were wanted by the occupying Nazi authorities, across the French border into Switzerland.

In 1944 his father was captured by the Nazis and sent to his death at Auschwitz. Meanwhile, his brother Alain's photograph was among those on the Gestapo's wanted list at Limoges. Marcel was sent to Paris where, using a false identity card that Alain had arranged for him two years earlier, he registered under the name of Marcel Marceau.
