## Biography

Yola d'Avril was a French-American actress. Credited variously as Yola D'Avril, Yola Vermairion and Yola d'Avril Montiague, she appeared in more than seventy films between 1925 and 1953, frequently in uncredited roles.

She was born in Lille, France. After her family moved to Paris during the First World War and her father died in 1923, she moved to Canada and worked as a dancer before going to Hollywood. Her film credits include *The Love Parade* (1929) as Paulette (uncredited), *All Quiet on the Western Front* (1930) as Suzanne (uncredited), *Tarzan and His Mate* (1934) as Madame Feronde (uncredited), *Gone with the Wind* (1939) as Belle's Girl (uncredited), and *Now, Voyager* (1942) as Celestine (uncredited). She was married to composer Edward Ward from 1930 until their divorce in 1941, and to Josef Montiague from 1948.
