Early life
Brigitte Gros was born as Brigitte Servan-Schreiber on 12 June 1925 in Saint-Germain-en-Laye, France.[1][2][3] Her father, Émile Servan-Schreiber, was a Jewish author.[1] Her mother, Denise Brésard, was Roman Catholic.
During World War II, she joined the French Resistance and served in the maquis of Ain under Léo Hamon.[2] However, she was arrested and tortured by the Gestapo on 15 August 1944.[2] During the liberation of France, she served under General Jean de Lattre de Tassigny.[2] She was a recipient of the Croix de Guerre for her service.[2][3]
Career
Gros first worked as a journalist for Les Échos and Paris-Presse.[2] She joined L'Express in 1955.[2] She published her first novel in 1960.[2]
Gros was elected to the city council of Meulan in 1965.[2] She served as its mayor from 1966 to 1985.[2] During her tenure, she oversaw the construction of the Paradis neighbourhood and the Henri-IV Hospital in Meulan.[3]
Gros served as a member of the French Senate from 1977 to 1985.[2] During her tenure, she worked on policies to support low-income housing known as HLM.[2] Additionally, she argued that each French family should be able to own a house.[2] Meanwhile, she authored a report in favour of the establishment of the Solidarity tax on wealth in 1980 (implemented in 1981).[2] She also voted in favour of abortion and looser divorce regulations as well as the repeal of the death penalty.[2]
Personal life, death and legacy
She married Emeric Gros; they had four children, Olivier, France, François and Catherine.[3]
Gros died on 11 March 1985 in Meulan-en-Yvelines, France.[1][2] The Place Brigitte-Gros, a town square, and the Centre Brigitte Gros, a hospital, both of which are based in Meulan, are named in her memory. Meanwhile, a ceremony to commemorate the 30th anniversary of her death was held in Meulan on 13 February 2016.[3]
