- Was a teacher in the late 1970s-early 1980s at BMCC (Borough of Manhattan Community College) in NYC, teaching English.
- In Stir Crazy (1980), a camera close-up clearly shows Erland's MIT class ring during the prison kitchen scene.
- Younger brother of Philip van Lidth de Jeude, members of the Dutch noble family Van Lidth de Jeude.
- His actual voice wasn't used for the song, "Down in the Valley", in the film. Due to the SAG-AFTRA strike in 1980, he wasn't able to record the song himself, so they used the pre-recorded track to which he had sung the song during the filming in the final print of the movie.
