Born to a Jewish family in London, Genn was educated as a lawyer and was a practicing barrister until after World War II, in which he served in the Royal Artillery as a Lieutenant-Colonel.
He began his acting career at The Old Vic and made his film debut in 1935, starring in a total of 85 screen roles until his death in 1978.
