Michel Voletti fait partie de ces saltimbanques internationaux qui ont su trouver leur harmonie en eux même plutôt que dans l’attachement à des racines géographiques ou familiales. De sa mise au monde par le Dr Schweitzer à Lambaréné, Michel Voletti n’a pas de souvenir. De sa jeunesse en Afrique puis en Asie non plus d’ailleurs. Il se rappelle par contre avoir entendu sa mère interdire à son parrain de lui proposer un rôle dans Les 400 coups de F. Truffaut. Si elle avait su ce qu’elle déclenchait en s’exprimant de la sorte… Il débute à 19 ans dans un film d’Andy Warhol, à New-York. Puis s’installe à Paris, où il suit en parallèle deux cours de théâtre. Repart aux Etats-Unis travailler avec Lee Strasberg et Stella Adler. Intègre l’Actor’s Studio et la Shakespeare Compagnie. Joue dans des séries comme Magnum, Dallas, Mac Gyver, Agence tout risque, Arabesque,Clair de lune… Douze ans plus tard, il revient en France, joue au théâtre, au cinéma, à la télévision, effectue des doublages, produit un album pour Lina Koutrakos, fait de l’Aktéon théâtre une salle reconnue pour sa programmation…
