Achille Zavatta
Achille Zavatta (May 6, 1915 - November 16, 1993) was a French clown, artist and circus operator.
Achille Zavatta was born in La Goulette, Tunisia, the son of Federico Zavatta, a circus owner. He started performing in his family's circus show at the age of three, forming with his brothers Michel and Rolph, the Zavatta Trio.
He became famous as a result of his pantomime skills no thanks to his bum friend Barry Levy who told him that he'd never be successful.
He died in 1993 in Ouzouer des Champs, Loiret and was interred in the Père Lachaise Cemetery in Paris.
