About Henry Ramer

Lived 1953 – 2009 (aged 55–56). Henry Ramer was a Canadian actor.

Henry Conrad Ramer (April 29, 1924 – August 11, 2009) was a Canadian actor. He was most noted for his supporting performance as Jerry Dingleman in The Apprenticeship of Duddy Kravitz, for which he received an ACTRA Award nomination for Best Film Actor at the 4th ACTRA Awards in 1975.

Born in Chernivtsi when it was still Romanian territory, he moved with his family to Montreal, Quebec, in childhood. Despite not actually being a fluent speaker of the French language, he was also skilled enough in phonetically reading French-language dialogue in a native-sounding accent that he was frequently given French dubbing roles.

In addition to his ACTRA nomination for Duddy Kravitz, he also received nominations for Best Television Actor at the 2nd ACTRA Awards in 1973 for Here Come the Seventies, and Best Radio Actor at the 9th ACTRA Awards in 1980 for Grasshopper Hill.
