Paul Verdier is a stage director, actor, and playwright, who also had a number of guest parts in American television. He is married to Sonia Lloveras-Verdier.
Before moving to the United States, Verdier was a member of the Paris-based repertory companies of Jean-Louis Barrault/Madeleine Renaud and Nicolas Bataille.
Verdier and his wife opened the Stages Theatre Center in Hollywood in 1982, as a venue for bringing “the richness, flavor and variety of World Theatre to Los Angeles audiences”.[1]
In 1986, the couple opened a French restaurant—Cafe des Artistes—next door to the theatre.
