Patrick Bauchau was born on December 6th 1938 in Brussels to Henry, a noted Belgian poet, and Mary (nee Kozyrev) a Russian expatriate. He and his two brothers were raised in Belgium, Switzerland and England. It is no wonder then that Patrick became a linguist, fluent in five languages (English, French, German, Spanish and Italian) and can also speak a little Flemish and Russian. He won a scholarship to Oxford University, where he gained his degree in modern languages.

His career began in the '60's, towards the end of the New Wave phase of French cinema. A major influence on his life was Eric Rohmer, with whom he worked in his first lead role in the 1967 film La Collectionneuse. Almost before his career had taken off, Patrick decided to take some time out to explore artistic pursuits. During this period he made cushions in the shape of animals for Salvadore Dali, and became a furniture maker.

On his return to acting in the '80's, he appeared in the Venice Film Festival  Golden Lion award winning movie Der Stand der Dinge (The State of Things). With his background in languages, Patrick was afforded the freedom to work in a plethora of foreign films as well as in big budget US movies such as Clear and Present Danger and Bond movie, A View To A Kill. Most recently he has been seen in Jennifer Lopez vehicle, The Cell, and alongside Jodie Foster in the acclaimed Panic Room.

Along with a successful film career, Patrick Bauchau has also made a smash on the small screen. After the cancellation of Kindred: The Embraced, Patrick took the role he is today most recognized for. Sydney it the hit TV series, The Pretender. The show ran for four seasons with two movies to date continuing the story.

Patrick is married to Mijanou, the screen writer and former actress (and younger sister of screen goddess Brigit Bardot), with whom he has one adult daughter, Camille. Together the couple live in Los Angeles, and when not working Patrick is passionate about his garden. As a vegetarian, he spends time cooking and he also continues to enjoy carpentry, and practices yoga.
