Louis Gilbert Tomei (born Luigi Gilaberto Tomei, February 10, 1909 or February 17, 1909 – May 15, 1955) was an American racing driver active during the 1930s and 1940s, and a stuntman active during the 1940s and 1950s.
Stunt performer
After World War II, Tomei worked as a stuntman and bit-part actor. His most notable appearance was in A Star is Born (1954). The following year, he died doubling for actor Edward G. Robinson during the filming of the movie Hell on Frisco Bay. Tomei was performing a fight scene on a motorboat that marked the climax of the movie when he was hurled against a metal fitting on the boat. He suffered a severe head injury, and died in hospital later that night.[1]
Tomei was not related to the actresses Concetta Tomei or Marisa Tomei.
