The Not So Quiet Life of Marcel Marceau

By Jenn Bailey and Sherry Bushue

Marcel Marceau was the most famous mime of the twentieth century. But before that, he was a young Jewish Frenchman growing up under the shadow of war. Born in Strasbourg as Marcel Mangel, he fled to Paris before the Nazi invaders and joined his brother in the Resistance. This is the thrilling story of Marcel's courageous youth and how his work against the enemy led to his debut as a mime artist.
