Place of Birth: Liberec
Biography: Vlasta Burian, vlastním jménem Josef Vlastimil Burian (9. dubna 1891 Liberec — 31. ledna 1962 Praha), známý jakoKrál komiků, byl český divadelní herec, režisér, zpěvák, divadelní ředitel, sportovec, podnikatel, filmový herec,spisovatel, mim a imitátor, který se díky své nespoutané živelnosti a potřebě být všude první vypracoval mezi skutečné hvězdy českého filmu a divadla. Byl jedním z nejpopulárnějších herců za první republiky, po válce byl však neprávem nařčen z kolaborace. I přesto jeho obliba trvá dodnes, o čemž svědčí vítězství v anketě o „Krále komiků“ a časté televizní reprízy jeho filmů.
