Jewish mime
The amazing Jewish mime and member of the French resistance, Marcel Marceau, born Marcel Mangel, was born 22 march in Strasbourg, France in 1923.
Marceau was recruited to help the French Resistance by his cousin, Georges Loinger, a commander in the secret unit who was part of the Oeuvre de Secours aux Enfants, a Jewish relief group that smuggled Jewish children from occupied France to neutral countries.
The world-famous mime delighted audiences for decades as “Bip,” a tragicomic figure who encountered the world without words.
May his memory be a blessing
