Incompatible birth dates
Sources disagree: August 8, 1922 (Gernreich, Rudi; BnF authorities; Encyclopædia Britannica Online; Brockhaus Enzyklopädie; IMDb; SNAC) or in 1923 (RKDartists).
The main date retains its own sources. These alternatives overlap neither all other statements nor the main date. Rank is Wikidata editorial priority, not proof.
