Biography

Born Irina Dziemiach, of Russian ancestry, in Pommeuse, Seine-et-Marne, she went to Paris and became a model. She made an appearance in a French film Julie la rousse (1959) and met producer Darryl F. Zanuck and became his lover. Zanuck had a long history of trying to turn his European mistresses into film stars – he had previously done this with Bella Darvi and Juliette Gréco, and would later do this with Genevieve Gilles.[1] Zanuck cast Demick in his epic production The Longest Day (1962) as a French resistance fighter.

Demick's career continued with roles in OSS se déchaîne (1963), The Visit (1964), Un monsieur de compagnie (1964) and Up from the Beach (1965). In 1965, she played in La Métamorphose des cloportes, and seven roles in Those Magnificent Men in Their Flying Machines, each one of a different nationality.

After making a few more films including Prudence and the Pill (1968) and Le Clan des Siciliens (The Sicilian Clan, 1969), and two Italian horror films in 1972, Demick's career faded and came to a standstill.

In 1964, she married Philippe Wahl, a Swiss entrepreneur. Together they lived in Rome and Paris. After her divorce in 1979, she moved to the U.S. She died in Indianapolis, Indiana.
