Suzanne Grandais (June 14, 1893 - August 28, 1920) was a French film actress popular during the World War I years. She was called "The Mary Pickford of France" because of her resemblance to the American superstar Mary Pickford. She was also compared to American serial queen Pearl White. She worked often with directors Léonce Perret and Louis Feuillade. Grandais was killed in a car crash in August 1920 while shooting scenes for a serial.
