Manfred Noa

A film and art director later specialised in historical films, Noa is perhaps best known today for his 1922 film Nathan the Wise, an adaptation of Gotthold Ephraim Lessing's 1779 play of the same title, which made a plea for religious tolerance. He was the third husband of the actress Eva May, who was the daughter of his fellow director Joe May and actress Mia May. Noa died 5 December 1930 in Berlin of peritonitis.
