Irina Demick, sometimes credited as Irina Demich, was a French actress with a brief career in American films. Born Irina Dziemiach, apparently of Slavic and Polish Jewish ancestry, in Pommeuse, Seine-et-Marne, she went to Paris and became a model. She made an appearance in a French film Julie la rousse and met producer Darryl F. Zanuck, whose lover she became: he then cast her in his epic production, The Longest Day as a French resistance fighter. Her career continued with roles in OSS se d�cha�ne, The Visit, alongside Ingrid Bergman and Anthony Quinn, Un monsieur de compagnie with Catherine Deneuve and Jean-Pierre Cassel and Up from the Beach opposite Cliff Robertson and Red Buttons. In 1965, she played in La M�tamorphose des cloportes, and seven roles in Those Magnificent Men in Their Flying Machines, each one of a different nationality. After making a few more films, Prudence and the Pill, Le Clan des Siciliens, with Jean Gabin and Alain Delon mostly in France and Italy, Demick's career faded and came to a standstill in 1972.
