Marcel Duhamel (16 July 1900 – 6 March 1977) was a French actor and screenwriter, founder of the Série noire publishing imprint.He played The Foreman in Jean Renoir's 1936 ''The Crime of Monsieur Lange''.
In 1953 he was credited as screenplay writer for ''This Man Is Dangerous'', a French film adaptation of Peter Cheyney's novel of the same name.
He translated and published Jim Thompson's 1964 pulp novel ''Pop. 1280'' as ''1275 Âmes'' ("souls") in French in 1966. Thereafter, the book was transposed to French colonial Africa in Bertrand Tavernier's film ''Coup de Torchon'' (''Clean Slate'') in 1981. He also translated (with Maurice-Edgar Coindreau) John Steinbeck's ''The Grapes of Wrath.'' Coindreau in an interview credited Duhamel with the bulk of the translation, noting that he himself had translated only about sixty pages of it. Provided by Wikipedia
