█░▒█ █ █ █▒░█
█░▓█ █ Edith Giovanna Gassion was born on 19 December 1915. Abandoned █ █▓░█
█░▓█ █ by her mother, she was placed by her traveling-showman father █ █▓░█
█░▓█ █ in the care of the madam of a cheap Normandy brothel. Here she █ █▓░█
█░▓█ █ remained until 1922, when she rejoined her father and █ █▓░█
█░▓█ █ accompanied him on his travels. In 1930, by now free of █ █▓░█
█░▓█ █ paternal authority, she started singing in a duo with Simone █ █▓░█
█░▓█ █ Berteaut, a woman destined to become her alter ego and █ █▓░█
█░▓█ █ misguiding spirit. The pair of them worked the streets and the █ █▓░█
█░▓█ █ camps, and by 1932 Piaf was with a man and pregnant. The child █ █▓░█
█░▓█ █ was born the following year, but died in 1935. █ █▓░█
█░▓█ █ █ █▓░█
█░▓█ █ By the autumn of the same year, Piaf had come to the attention █ █▓░█
█░▓█ █ of Louis LeplΘe, a Paris night-life figure who booked her into █ █▓░█
█░▓█ █ the Gerny's club. "La mome" Piaf proved such a success that █ █▓░█
█░▓█ █ Polydor signed her up, and before the year was out she had █ █▓░█
█░▓█ █ recorded "L'Etranger" and "Les Momes de la Cloche". Marguerite █ █▓░█
█░▓█ █ Monnot started writing songs for her. In the spring of 1936, █ █▓░█
█░▓█ █ however, LeplΘe was murdered, a sordid affair that finished up █ █▓░█
█░▓█ █ rebounding on Piaf and soiling her image. Sh nevertheless █ █▓░█
█░▓█ █ played late-spring engagements in the Bobino and the EuropΘen. █ █▓░█
█░▓█ █ Records and Paris stages, strange though it may seem today, █ █▓░█
█░▓█ █ were insufficient to keep a young beginner in food, so Edith █ █▓░█
█░▓█ █ set out to conquer France's far-flung provinces. █ █▓░█
█░▓█ █ █ █▓░█
█░▓█ █ In the late summer, she phoned Raymond Asso, whose "Mon █ █▓░█
█░▓█ █ lΘgionnaire" she had earlier refused, and the contact resulted █ █▓░█
█░▓█ █ in his succeeding LeplΘe as her mentor. In the autumn she █ █▓░█
█░▓█ █ landed a booking at the Alhambra, and by January 1937 was █ █▓░█
█░▓█ █ waxing two titles by Asso and Monnot, "Mon lΘgionnaire" and "Le █ █▓░█
█░▓█ █ Fanion de la LΘgion". The spring found her back on the boards █ █▓░█
█░▓█ █ of the Bobino, but none of this was enough for Edith, who had █ █▓░█
█░▓█ █ set her mind on the ABC, the most prestigious Paris music-hall. █ █▓░█
█░▓█ █ Before that spring was out, the bastion had fallen, turning the █ █▓░█
█░▓█ █ tide of her career. She notched up a triumph at the ABC, and by █ █▓░█
█░▓█ █ the autumn they were clamouring for her return, all of which █ █▓░█
█░▓█ █ resulted in a tour of the provinces with ABC show. In June 1938 █ █▓░█
█░▓█ █ she was back at the EuropΘen, the following October recorded █ █▓░█
█░▓█ █ "C'est lui que mon Coeur a choisi". She was now well and truly █ █▓░█
█░▓█ █ un her way, projecting her voice without a mike and taking her █ █▓░█
█░▓█ █ audiences by storm. She fulfilled two further dates at the █ █▓░█
█░▓█ █ Bobino, the first in the autumn of 1938, the second the █ █▓░█
█░▓█ █ following spring. By the autumn of 1939, war had broken out. █ █▓░█
█░▓█ █ Asso was called up, and Michel Emer, just before leaving for █ █▓░█
█░▓█ █ the front penned a song for her, "L'AccordΘoniste". █ █▓░█
█░▓█ █ █ █▓░█
█░▓█ █ Edith was now earning her living at the Night Club, but later █ █▓░█
█░▓█ █ reappeared on the bill of the EuropΘen. A young singer by the █ █▓░█
█░▓█ █ name of Paul Meurisse caught her attention, and she proceeded █ █▓░█
█░▓█ █ to devour him. █ █▓░█
█░▓█ █ █ █▓░█
█░▓█ █ As the winter of 1940 was drawing to a close, Piaf and Meurisse █ █▓░█
█░▓█ █ appeared together at the Bobino, then played in the stage █ █▓░█
█░▓█ █ premiere of Jean Cocteau's "Le Bel IndiffΘrent". In the spring, █ █▓░█
█░▓█ █ the two lovers returned to the EuropΘen, at the same time █ █▓░█
█░▓█ █ taking part in the filming of "Monmartre-sur-Seine" with █ █▓░█
█░▓█ █ Jean-Louis Barrault, Serge Reggiani and Georges Marchal. They █ █▓░█
█░▓█ █ then featured in "La Revue de l'ABC", and in the spring of 1941 █ █▓░█
█░▓█ █ they were billed at the Bobino. Edith was by this time working █ █▓░█
█░▓█ █ with Henry Contet, and in the early summer she was booked into █ █▓░█
█░▓█ █ the EuropΘen. Her lover of the moment was by now Norbert █ █▓░█
█░▓█ █ Glanzberg, a Jewish pianist, something that appealed to her █ █▓░█
█░▓█ █ taste for provocation. In the autumn she again appeared at the █ █▓░█
█░▓█ █ ABC. █ █▓░█
█░▓█ █ █ █▓░█
█░▓█ █ By 1943 France had hit rock-bottom, and during the summer of █ █▓░█
█░▓█ █ that year Edith featured at the Bobino and toured the stalags █ █▓░█
█░▓█ █ singing for prisoners, many of whom she helped to escape. It █ █▓░█
█░▓█ █ was during the Occupation period that she met Les Compagnons de █ █▓░█
█░▓█ █ la Chanson. In 1944, the end of the war in sight, Lou Barrier █ █▓░█
█░▓█ █ became her impresario, and he landed her a first two-week █ █▓░█
█░▓█ █ engagement at the Moulin Rouge. Opening the show was Yves █ █▓░█
█░▓█ █ Montand, and Edith was again all set to fall in love, now about █ █▓░█
█░▓█ █ to play that Pygmalion role henceforth the story of her life. █ █▓░█
█░▓█ █ In early 1945 Montand was opening act on her show at the █ █▓░█
█░▓█ █ Etoile, where she promptly scored another triumph. By the █ █▓░█
█░▓█ █ autumn Edith was back at the Etoile, then during the winter █ █▓░█
█░▓█ █ played the Bobino. █ █▓░█
█░▓█ █ █ █▓░█
█░▓█ █ Having taken the decision to leave Polydor for PathΘ, she set █ █▓░█
█░▓█ █ off on a tour of Alsace. By the time she returned to Paris, one █ █▓░█
█░▓█ █ of the Compagnons de la Chanson had stepped into the role of █ █▓░█
█░▓█ █ lover, Montand discarded because too successful Edith had █ █▓░█
█░▓█ █ already opened many doors for Montand, even procuring him █ █▓░█
█░▓█ █ opportunity in the film world with a part in "Etoile sans █ █▓░█
█░▓█ █ lumiΘre". It was now the turn of Compagnons de la Chanson to be █ █▓░█
█░▓█ █ set upon the road to success. The group belonged to the same █ █▓░█
█░▓█ █ recording stable, and PathΘ now decided to invest it promoting █ █▓░█
█░▓█ █ it while at the same time giving the Piaf career fresh impetus. █ █▓░█
█░▓█ █ In their company Edith appeared in "Neuf Garcons, un Coeur" and █ █▓░█
█░▓█ █ recorded "Les Trois Cloches". When they performed this number █ █▓░█
█░▓█ █ on stage, she forsook her usual black dress for a long █ █▓░█
█░▓█ █ pale-blue one. The song, known in English as "The Three Bells", █ █▓░█
█░▓█ █ was a triumph. █ █▓░█
█░▓█ █ █ █▓░█
█░▓█ █ In the autumn of 1946 Edith returned to the PathΘ studios to █ █▓░█
█░▓█ █ record several new songs, among them "La Vie an Rose", and then █ █▓░█
█░▓█ █ appeared at the Etoile with the Compagnons. During the winter █ █▓░█
█░▓█ █ she made her first trip to America, singing at Washington's █ █▓░█
█░▓█ █ Constitution Hall. The autumn of 1947 found her back at the █ █▓░█
█░▓█ █ Etoile, but she then decided to return to America with the █ █▓░█
█░▓█ █ Compagnons. They appeared together at the Play House in New █ █▓░█
█░▓█ █ York, where the Compagnons met with such success that they set █ █▓░█
█░▓█ █ off on a tour of their own while Edith went for the jackpot by █ █▓░█
█░▓█ █ accepting an engagement at the Versailles. █ █▓░█
█░▓█ █ █ █▓░█
█░▓█ █ Back in France, she scored another triumph at the ABC in the █ █▓░█
█░▓█ █ spring of 1948, then in July returned yet again to America, █ █▓░█
█░▓█ █ where she started an affair with boxer Marcel Cerdan. For the █ █▓░█
█░▓█ █ first time in her life she had fallen for someone not a singer. █ █▓░█
█░▓█ █ In the autumn, an Edith Piaf song moved into England's newly █ █▓░█
█░▓█ █ launched sheet-music charts. By the spring of 1949 it was again █ █▓░█
█░▓█ █ triumph time at the ABC, then back to New York. Cerdan set of █ █▓░█
█░▓█ █ to join her, but was killed when the plane in which he was █ █▓░█
█░▓█ █ traveling crashed. Edith, totally broken by his death, was soon █ █▓░█
█░▓█ █ seeking refuge in drugs and alcohol. █ █▓░█
█░▓█ █ █ █▓░█
█░▓█ █ At the outset of 1950, in Paris's Salle Pleyel, she sang █ █▓░█
█░▓█ █ "L'Hymne a l'Amour" in Cerdan's memory. After doing a new show █ █▓░█
█░▓█ █ at the ABC in the spring, she recorded several of her songs in █ █▓░█
█░▓█ █ English. She began a relationship with Eddie Constantine, and █ █▓░█
█░▓█ █ in 1951 returned to theatre in "la Petit Lili" at the ABC. Two █ █▓░█
█░▓█ █ cyclists, Andre PoussΘ and Toto GΘrardin, found a place in her █ █▓░█
█░▓█ █ heart, replacing her handsome American in Paris. In recording █ █▓░█
█░▓█ █ "Je Hais les Dimanches", offered her by a still little-known █ █▓░█
█░▓█ █ Charles Aznavour, Edith was attempting to take the man over, █ █▓░█
█░▓█ █ but in vain. She returned to the studios to record "Jezebel", █ █▓░█
█░▓█ █ adapted by Aznavour. At the end of the year she appeared at the █ █▓░█
█░▓█ █ ABC prior to filming "Paris chante toujours". █ █▓░█
█░▓█ █ █ █▓░█
█░▓█ █ In 1952 she married singer-composer Jacques Pills and recorded █ █▓░█
█░▓█ █ other pieces destined for posterity such as "Je t'ai dans la █ █▓░█
█░▓█ █ Peau", co-written by Pills and his pianist, a man by the name █ █▓░█
█░▓█ █ of Gilbert BΘcaud. Just before leaving for New York, where she █ █▓░█
█░▓█ █ went through a second marriage ceremony with Pills, she filmed █ █▓░█
█░▓█ █ "Boum sur Paris". In 1953 she sang at the Copa City Night in █ █▓░█
█░▓█ █ Miami. When she returned to Paris in July, Gilbert BΘcaud █ █▓░█
█░▓█ █ brought her songs. She recorded "Les Amants de Venise", "Bravo █ █▓░█
█░▓█ █ pour le Clown" and "Les Croix". In early 1954 she recorded a █ █▓░█
█░▓█ █ future classic, "La Goualante du Pauvre Jean", and appeared at █ █▓░█
█░▓█ █ the Alhambra and the Bobino. In the spring she took part in the █ █▓░█
█░▓█ █ Sacha Guitry film "Si Versailles m'Θtait contΘ", in which she █ █▓░█
█░▓█ █ sang "Ca ira". She then played in a revival of "Le Bell █ █▓░█
█░▓█ █ IndiffΘrent" with Jacques Pills at the Marigny Theatre. In the █ █▓░█
█░▓█ █ autumn she was back in the studios, and among a number of songs █ █▓░█
█░▓█ █ she recorded was "Sous le ciel de Paris". Her repertoire now █ █▓░█
█░▓█ █ oscillated between intensely emotional songs and lighter, more █ █▓░█
█░▓█ █ sentimental material. In early 1955 she played the Olympia █ █▓░█
█░▓█ █ Theatre for the first time, and by September was back in New █ █▓░█
█░▓█ █ York, after a three year absence, appearing at Versailles. She █ █▓░█
█░▓█ █ then moved onto Havana and Mexico. █ █▓░█
█░▓█ █ █ █▓░█
█░▓█ █ At the end of the very cold winter of 1956, she recorded "Les █ █▓░█
█░▓█ █ Amants d'un Jour" and "L'Homme a la Moto". By the time Summer █ █▓░█
█░▓█ █ came round, she had already played two sell-out houses at the █ █▓░█
█░▓█ █ Olympia. She then headed back across the Atlantic and spent 11 █ █▓░█
█░▓█ █ months touring America from north to south. Among the venues █ █▓░█
█░▓█ █ were the Constitution Hall in Washington and the Carnegie Hall █ █▓░█
█░▓█ █ in New York, and she experienced the satisfaction of receiving █ █▓░█
█░▓█ █ a seven minutes standing ovation. At the end of 1956 she played █ █▓░█
█░▓█ █ in the film "Les Amants de Demain" and recorded "La Foule". In █ █▓░█
█░▓█ █ 1958, her repeated recent success enabled her to sail through a █ █▓░█
█░▓█ █ three-month run at the Olympia with Felix Martin. Martin █ █▓░█
█░▓█ █ inspired her to record "Mon Manege a moi", but no sooner had █ █▓░█
█░▓█ █ she helped launch him than she left him for a young American █ █▓░█
█░▓█ █ painter, Douglas Davies, for a romance that lasted the time of █ █▓░█
█░▓█ █ a single canvas. █ █▓░█
█░▓█ █ █ █▓░█
█░▓█ █ In the late spring of 1959 Edith recorded Georges Moustaki's █ █▓░█
█░▓█ █ "Milord", her first big success in the English hit-parade. It █ █▓░█
█░▓█ █ also made third place in Italy and reached the number one spots █ █▓░█
█░▓█ █ in Germany and Holland. At the end of the year she set of with █ █▓░█
█░▓█ █ Moustaki for New York, when she collapsed on-stage at the █ █▓░█
█░▓█ █ Waldorf Astoria. Yet once back in France she again set out on █ █▓░█
█░▓█ █ tour. In 1960 Charles Dumont, whom Edith had long ignored, came █ █▓░█
█░▓█ █ to her with "Non, je ne regrette rien", a song that quickly █ █▓░█
█░▓█ █ became a big hit throughout Europe. Number one in Holland, █ █▓░█
█░▓█ █ number one in Italy. In late 1960 she followed up with "Mon █ █▓░█
█░▓█ █ Dieu", another historic song. These Dumont-penned hits opened █ █▓░█
█░▓█ █ the way to a four-month run at the Olympia, the show continuing █ █▓░█
█░▓█ █ through until the spring of 1961. This latest triumph was based █ █▓░█
█░▓█ █ on Dumont's songs, but she also recorded "Exodus" for the █ █▓░█
█░▓█ █ sound-track of the film of the same name. And before the █ █▓░█
█░▓█ █ summer, a future hit was on the way: "Les Amants". █ █▓░█
█░▓█ █ █ █▓░█
█░▓█ █ During the following winter, Edith met ThΘo Sarapo, who gave █ █▓░█
█░▓█ █ her energy to start working again. They married in the autumn █ █▓░█
█░▓█ █ of 1962. During the period of engagement they recorded "A quoi █ █▓░█
█░▓█ █ ca sert l'Amour" and appeared at the Olympia shortly after. The █ █▓░█
█░▓█ █ close of winter 1963 found them at the Bobino, but Edith was █ █▓░█
█░▓█ █ now weary and by the spring had bee hospitalized. That summer █ █▓░█
█░▓█ █ ThΘo took her to the Riviera to convalesce, but she suffered a █ █▓░█
█░▓█ █ relapse and was again hospitalized. When she died, in secret, █ █▓░█
█░▓█ █ during the early hours of 11 October 1963 her eyes moist with █ █▓░█
█░▓█ █ tears, Sarapo headed for Paris by car with her corpse. Edith █ █▓░█
█░▓█ █ Piaf was buried in the Pere-Lachaise cemetery on 14 October. █ █▓░█
