}}Jane Placide (1804 – May 16, 1835) was an American actress.[1]

Early life

Jane's parents had immigrated to the United States in 1792. Her mother was a singer, her father Alexandre Placide was a theater manager in Charleston.[2][3] Placide had three siblings; Caroline, Henry and Thomas.[4] All four children became well-known actors, however, it's unclear which stage name they later used.[5]

Career

Placide made her theater debut in New Orleans in 1923 where she mainly starred in Shakespearean roles. Before she became the most celebrated actress in New Orleans, Placide had taken the stage three years before in Norfolk, Virginia. Placide later gained more fame when she appeared at James H. Caldwell's American Theatre in James H. Kennicott's romantic tragedy Irma; or The Prediction in 1830.[6]

It is said that Caldwell and Edwin Forrest were both in love with Placide. Forrest supposedly challenged Caldwell to a duel, which never happened.[5][6][7][8]

Death

Placide was buried at the Girod Cemetery originally. The cemetery was eventually disbanded and her remains were reburied at the Hope Mausoleum.[1]
