Véronique Nordey (15 June 1939 – 29 November 2017) was a French actress. Her son, Stanislas Nordey, is the director of the Théâtre national de Strasbourg.[1]

She trained under Tania Balachova, and made her first film, Sorcières de Salem, directed by Raymond Rouleau, as a teenager. She married the director Jean-Pierre Mocky, and they made several films together, but divorced after fourteen years. Their son Stanislas was born in 1966.[2]

After her son's birth, Nordey did not appear again in films until 2004, though she did continue her stage career after a break, and appeared on television a few times during the 1970s. When Stanislas had become a well-known director, she appeared in several of his productions.[3]

Nordey was born in Paris and died in Lyon, aged 78, of cancer.[1]
