Georges Metaxa
Georges Radu Metaxa (11 September 1899 - 8 December 1950) was a Romanian-born American stage and film actor, and singer. He was known for his warm operatic voice and playing genteel antogonists.

Life & Career
Metaxa was born in Bucharest, Romania on to Nicholas Metaxa and Emilie Theophilatos.

He was married to Helene Valoary until their divorce in 1933, and they had one child. He was then married to Margaret Stafford in April 1933 until her death in April 1934. He later married Byrnece Macfadden Muckerman (the daughter of American publisher and bodybuilder Bernarr Macfadden) in 1946.

Towards the end of his life Metaxa's health declined to such a point he had to turn down roles, notably the leading role in South Pacific that was being shown in London. Metaxa died suddenly of a heart attack 8 December 1950 at a hotel in Monroe, Louisiana, as he and his wife were on their way to their home in Beverley Hills after returning from a seven month long trip around Europe.
