Валери Quennessen (3 December 1957 – 19 March 1989) was a French film актрисы. Quennessen was born in Paris and dedicated much of her childhood to pursuing her dream of becoming an acrobat. She quickly reached a level of competence and received an award for her expertise at the age of ten. By her teens, she had given up acrobatics and enrolled in acting classes, not because she particularly wanted to get into show business, but to help overcome her social anxiety.

She continued studying drama at the национальная высшая Школа искусств и техники театра in Paris and appeared in several theater productions. She made her first film appearances in a pair of 1976 French films: Le Petit Marcel and Полный супер. Although she would continue to appear in the occasional French film and television show, in 1979 she landed one of the main roles in the American film French Postcards, working alongside the yet-to-be famous Дебра Уингер and Mandy Patinkin. She followed up that film by playing Princess Yasimina in Arnold Schwarzenegger's 1982 фильм Conan the Barbarian. It would be her next фильм, Summer Boat, that was the peak of her career for American audiences. The story of a love triangle on the Greek island of Santorini also starred Peter Gallagher and Дэрил Ханна. During the filming of the movie, in which she played an archaeologist, Валери actually discovered several pieces of pottery at the Акротири site that were more than 3,500 years old. Shortly after Summer Lovers, Quennessen retired from acting, choosing to concentrate on raising her family. She married Francois Manceaux and they had two children, Antoine and Elsa. It has been reported on her IMDB page that in 1989 she had died in a car accident at the age of 31.
