Frenchman jailed for Jordan slurs ... and "frightened" has been found guilty of stalking.
Jack Jordan, 37, a former psychiatric patient, faces up to a year in jail.
During the New York trial, Ms Thurman told the court she was "completely freaked out" and that he sent her a series of disturbing letters and cards.
He was also said to have turned up at Ms Thurman's home and film sets and sent harassing e-mails to her family.
Jordan, an out-of-work lifeguard and pool cleaner, was convicted of stalking and aggravated harassment but was cleared of two other counts of aggravated harassment.
New York Criminal Court Judge Gregory Carro ordered him to be remanded into custody for psychiatric evaluation.
Prosecutors said Jordan became obsessed with the star in 2005 and sent her 20 bizarre letters while in a psychiatric institution.
Giving evidence on Thursday, the 38-year-old Kill Bill actress said she felt "sick" after receiving a picture drawn on a on a religious confirmation card.
It showed a razor blade and a gravestone marked RIP near what appeared to be an open grave.
"I was just completely disturbed," she said. "It was almost like a nightmare - it was scary."
Jordan was also accused of emotionally blackmailing Ms Thurman's parents by telling them he would kill himself unless he could see her.
'Misguided'
He tried to get into her trailer during the filming of My Super Ex-Girlfriend and once said his hands should be on the star's body "at all times", the court heard.
His parents had him committed to the psychiatric institution after his visit to the movie set.
Explaining his actions on Friday, he said: "In a misguided way I was trying to give her an opportunity to meet me and give myself an opportunity to meet her.
"I was feeling distressed. I had this feeling of longing for Ms Thurman and I was trying to explain it. I was not trying to scare her in any way."
