Henreid was born in Trieste (then an Adriatic naval port belonging to Austria-Hungary), the son of a Viennese banker.
Henreid was a well-known actor on the stage of Reinhardt's theater in Vienna from 1933 to 1938.
Henreid, himself a real-life refugee, was not happy about the basic flaws in the screenplay's treatment of his character, the underground leader Victor Laszlo.
Born in Trieste which was part of the Austro-Hungarian Empire, and now part of Italy, Henreid was the son of an aristocratic Viennese banker.
Henreid also directed his own daughter, Monica Henreid (an aspiring actress at the time) in the same film wherein she plays Davis's maid.
Henreid died from pneumonia at Santa Monica, California and was interred in the Woodlawn Cemetery.

Paul Henreid Biography :: Hollywood.com(Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-13)
Henreid is best remembered as Ingrid Bergman's husband, the stoic Resistance leader Victor Laszlo, in "Casablanca" (1943) and for his classic bit of romantic business in "Now Voyager" (1942) in which he lit two cigarettes at the same time and handed one to Bette Davis.
Henreid became a leading man with Reinhardt's theater company and appeared in two Austrian films in the early 1930s before he moved to England because of his anti-Nazi sentiments.
In 1964, Henreid reteamed with his "Now, Voyager" and "Deception" (1946) co-star Bette Davis, directing her in the dual roles of homicidal twin sisters in the campy suspense melodrama "Dead Ringers".
PaulHenreid's acting career began in Max Reinhardt's theater in Vienna.
He considered equally misleading the title of his autobiography, Ladies Man, which he had originally called "Naked in Four Countries." In 1948, Henreid was fllisted by the Hollywood studios for joining the Committee for the First Amendment, so he turned to television.
As a result of his multifaceted career, Henreid was one of very few Hollywood professionals to have been awarded not one but two stars on the Walk of Fame.
Paul Georg Julius Hernreid Ritter Von Wassel-Waldingau (wow, that's a mouthful!) was born on January 10th, 1908 in Trieste, Austria-Hungary.
Paul played Victor Laszlo in the crictically acclaimed movie, "Casablanca", which also starred Bogart, Ingrid Bergman, Claude Rains, Peter Lorre, and Sydney Greenstreet.
Although Henreid never really recaptured the magic he had in "Casablanca" and "Now, Voyager", he distinguished himself as a great actor, and a wonderful producer and director.
But Henreid, as Jerry Durrance, the unattainable love of Charlotte's life, created an indelible image when, in a recurring motif, he lit two cigarettes simultaneously and then handed one to Davis, one of the great romantic gestures in silver screen history.
While Henreid's characters never flirted or gave a heavy come-on toward female co-stars, the actor exuded an air of romance which most women—on-screen and in the audience—could not resist.
Henreid's career dates to 1933, when he was discovered in Vienna by Otto Preminger.
