	Actors - Jean LeClerc

Jean LeClerc (born July 7, 1948 in Montreal, Quebec) is a Canadian actor, best known for his work in the United States as Jeremy Hunter on All My Children and Loving in the 1980s and 1990s. He stands well over 6' tall.

He first started his career in Quebec on the television series Les belles histoires des Pays-d'en-Haut. Roles in Québécois movies followed, culminating in his first English-speaking role in the 1976 Canadian film, Strange Shadows in an Empty Room. That same year, he acted in a television miniseries on the life of Sarah Bernhardt.

LeClerc moved to the United States in 1982, playing the part of a French doctor on the soap opera The Doctors. He played similar kinds of roles on The Edge of Night and As the World Turns before being offered the role of Jeremy Hunter in 1985. This was the first time he was slated to play an American, and it would prove to be his most lucrative role.

He also appeared on Broadway as the title character in a production of Dracula
.

He left All My Children in 1992 with actress Genie Francis, who played his wife on the show. They emigrated to Loving, and LeClerc played his character for three more years before leaving the program in 1995.

In the winter of 1995, LeClerc moved back to Canada full-time and commenced acting for the national and Quebec markets. He most recently appeared in a Patty Duke Show television reunion special in the United States, as well as in the 2005 film Idole instantanée.
