- Additional Crew
Cyril James Cusack was born in Durban, Natal, South Africa, to Alice
Violet (Cole), a Cockney English actress and chorus girl, and James
Walter Cusack, an Irish mounted policeman in Natal. He was brought up
in Ireland. He was a child star on the Irish stage, appearing first at
the age of 7. He toured Ireland with his own theater company. Although
he made some very telling film appearances, his small stature kept him
from the classic roles.
With his wife, Irish-born actress
Maureen Cusack (née Mary Margaret
Kiely), he is the father of actress
Sinéad Cusack and the grandfather of actor
Max Irons.
