Sándor Radó (1891–1944) was a Hungarian stage and film actor.[1] [2] He established himself as an actor after making his debut in 1908, settling Budapest and appearing at many venues. He was part of the Budapest cabaret scene.[3] Between 1927 and 1937 he appeared occasionally in films. Of Jewish heritage, the increasing Anti-Jewish laws restricted him from pursuing his career.[4] He died during the rule of the Nazi-aligned Arrow Cross.
