Dean, James

(1931-55), actor. Dean starred in three box-office hits, Rebel without a Cause (1955), East of Eden (1955), and Giant (1956). He personified the American youth of the mid-1950s with his emotional, moody portrayals of troubled and rebellious young men. After his tragic death at age twenty-four in an automobile crash, he became a legend and cult hero.
