Veteran French theater, film, TV and voice director and actor André Oumansky died in Paris, France on September 26th. He was 92. Born in Paris on August 15, 1933, he appeared in more than 80 films from 1958. He was very active in the theater and played important supporting roles in films and television. He was certainly one of the last "survivors" from the cast of the film "Normandie-Niemen" (1960). He also did some voice-over work, notably lending his voice to Omar Sharif in the legendary "Doctor Zhivago" (1965) and to the elderly Dracula (Gary Oldman) in Coppola's "Dracula" (1992). André was married to Violet and was the father of two children. Oumansky appeared in one Spaghetti western as the U.S. president in 2009’s “Lucky Luke” starring Jean Dujardin.
