    James Byron Dean was an American actor. He became one of the most influential figures in Hollywood in the 1950s, despite a career that lasted only five years. His impact on cinema and popular culture was profound, even though he appeared in just three major films. These films include Rebel Without a Cause, in which he portrayed a disillusioned and rebellious teenager, East of Eden, which showcased his intense emotional range, and Giant, a sprawling drama released a year after his death. These films have been preserved in the United States National Film Registry by the Library of Congress for their "cultural, historical, or aesthetic significance". He was killed in a car accident at the age of 24 in 1955, leaving him a lasting symbol of rebellion, youthful defiance, and the restless spirit. Dean was the first actor to receive a posthumous Academy Award nomination for Best Actor for his role in East of Eden. Wikipedia
