Colette De Juvenel (1913 – 1981) Writing under just her surname, this splendid and controversial French novelist, is best known perhaps for her novel "Gigi." A member of the Belgian Royal Academy and president of the Académie Goncourt (she was also the first woman admitted), Colette was also a Chevalier and Grand Officer of the Legion d´honneur. Colette was married to Henri de Jouvenel, editor of the newspaper "Le Matin" from 1912-1924.
