Villechaize was born in Nazi-occupied Paris on April 23, 1943, to English-born Evelyn (Recchionni) and André Villechaize, a surgeon in Toulon. The youngest of four sons, Villechaize was born with dwarfism, likely due to an endocrine disorder, which his surgeon father tried unsuccessfully to cure in several institutions. In later years, he insisted on being called a "midget" rather than a "dwarf", which annoyed his acting contemporary with a similar condition, Billy Barty, who was an activist who found that term derogatory. Villechaize was bullied at school for his condition and found solace in painting. In 1959, at age 16, he entered the École des Beaux-Arts to study art. In 1961, he became the youngest artist ever to have his work displayed in the Museum of Paris.The most expensive item with a signature of Hervé Villechaize (HERVE VILLECHAIZE Fantasy Island Signed Autographed 8 x 10 Photo - BAS not PSA) was sold in September 2023 for $450.00 while the cheapest item (Hervé Villechaize (d) Tattoo from Fantasy Island tv show Autograph on napkin) found a new owner for $2.20 in June 2023.
