László Bánhidi

László Bánhidi (1906–1984) was a Hungarian actor.

Bánhidi (until 1908, before his name was Hungarianized, Mudris) was the son of Antal János Károly, a cadastral engineer. His father was born in Jászárokszállás in 1876, and his mother's name was Bánhidi (Bánhidi Paulina). His mother, Terézia Nagy, was born in Pankota, Arad County. László studied theology, then enrolled at the Academy of Performing Arts, graduating in 1928. He performed at the National Chamber Theater from 1929 to 1930, and in Kassa between 1930 and 1931. He then moved on to Ungvár and Munkács between 1931 and 1934, and in 1934 he signed a contract with the Bethlen Square Theater in Budapest. From 1937 to 1939, he was a member of the Hungarian Theater, then a member of the Belvárosi Theater for a year, from 1939 to 1940. In 1941, he signed a one-year contract with the National Theater in Miskolc, and from 1942 to 1944, he performed at the Vidám Színpad. He became a member of the National Theater in 1944, but also performed at the Madách Theater at the same time. In 1949, he rejoined the Belvárosi Theater, and between 1951 and 1957, he performed at the Hungarian People's Army Theater. In 1957, he signed a contract with the Petőfi Theater, and between 1960 and 1963, he was a member of the Jókai Theater.
