Jacqueline Laurent (6 August 1918 – 18 December 2009) was a French film actress. She starred with Jean Gabin in Marcel Carné's Le jour se lève (1939).

Early years

Laurent was the daughter of Jacques Janin, a composer whose compositions included music for films.

Film

After seeing one of Laurent's French films, Louis B. Mayer suggested that she try acting in Hollywood. That suggestion led to her American film debut in Judge Hardy's Children (1938).

Personal life

Laurent was married when she was 16 and divorced soon after.
