- Howard Vernon wurde am 15 Juli 1908 in Schweiz geboren. Er war Schauspieler, bekannt für Das Schweigen des Meeres (1949), Die letzte Nacht des Boris Gruschenko (1975) und Delicatessen (1991). Er starb am 25 Juli 1996 in Frankreich.
- In two movies he was the French voice of Oliver Hardy (from Laurel & Hardy).
- Lived in Paris during World War II. After the Nazis occupied France, Vernon was conscripted as an on-air presenter for the regime-controlled TV station Fernsehsender Paris, since he was of a neutral nationality (Swiss) and bilingual.
- Was an avid photographer, and sometimes worked as a behind-the-scenes and stills photographer on film sets.
- Jean-Pierre Melville's Le Silence de la mer, in which he played a gentle anti-Nazi German officer, made him somewhat famous but, in part due to his rough-hewn looks and Swiss accent, he was subsequently relegated to playing gangsters and heavies.
- In 1961, he became a favorite actor of Spanish film director Jesús Franco and began starring in many low-budget horror and erotic films produced in Spain and France.
