Annie Vernay (November 21, 1921 – August 15, 1941) was a French actress, who emerged as a star of the French cinema before her sudden death at the age of nineteen. After winning a beauty contest, Vernay appeared in seven French films including Max Ophüls's The Novel of Werther (1938).[1]
Her performances attracted interest from American studios. While en route to Hollywood via the Atlantic, she contracted typhus and died in Buenos Aires.
