Английская Википедия:Albert Millaud
Albert Millaud was a French journalist, writer and stage author, born in Paris, 13 January 1844, and died in the same city on 23 October 1892.[1]
Life and career
He was the son of the banker Moïse Millaud, the founder of Le Petit Journal.[2]
He studied law (obtaining his doctorate in 1866),[1] but turned his energies to literature and in 1865 published a volume of poetry entitled Fantaisies de jeunesse.
Under the pseudonym Oronte, he wrote articles for La Gazette de Hollande and La Revue de poche which he founded with Abel d’Avrecourt.
For his daily articles in Le Figaro, where he covered parliamentary affairs, he also used the pseudonyms[3] La Bruyère, Saint-Simon, Paul Hémery, Lafontaine and Baron Grimm.
Millaud's first play, written in 1872, was Le Péché véniel. He was the author of the libretto for several opérettes for Jacques Offenbach, Charles Lecocq and Hervé. He married the singer Anna Judic,[4] for whom he wrote Lilli, Niniche, La Roussotte, La Femme à papa and most memorably Mam'zelle Nitouche (in collaboration with Henri Meilhac).
He became a chevalier de la Légion d'honneur in 1877.
