Louis H. Chrispijn, Sr. (13 May 1854, in Amsterdam – 1 November 1926, in Amsterdam) was a Dutch actor, writer, and director of both theatre and films.[1] Together with M.H. Laddé, Willy Mullens, Maurits Binger, and Theo Frenkel, he was one of the pioneers of early Dutch cinema.[2]
He and his wife, actress Christine van Meeteren, married in 1905 and toured the Dutch East Indies together through 1908.[3] They were invited by Binger to join his troupe at Filmfabriek Hollandia ; van Meeteren acted alongside Annie Bos in a number of comedic films about Zeeland girls, Mijntje en Trijntje. Chrispijn became Hollandia's first permanent director in 1915. He and van Meeteren divorced the following year.
