Biography
Born in 1932 in Joal, Senegal, to René Senghor and Hélène Conté, Blaise Senghor was a nephew of the first president of Senegal Léopold Sédar Senghor (1906 – 2001).[1][6][7] After attending the Lycée Van Vollenhoven (later renamed Lycée Lamine Guèye) at Dakar, he studied at the Institut des hautes études cinématographiques (IDHEC) in Paris during 1958 - 1960.[3] He obtained a teacher's Diplôme d'études supérieures (fr) in Languages and Classical literature, and a Bachelor of Arts (Licence de lettres) as well.[8]
As a filmmaker Blaise Senghor became known for Qui trop embrasse (1962, Series 1 episode 18 of Les cinq dernières minutes)[9] and Le grand Magal de Touba (1962), documenting the eponymous Sufi Islamic festival.[10] He acted in Senegal as an executive producer of Yves Ciampi's film Liberté I.[2]
After a stroke made it impossible to continue a filmmaker, Senghor started working at the Senegalese Embassy in Paris. He served Senegal as a UNESCO Permanent Delegate (ambassador) in Paris and was one of the vice-chairmen of the executive board (1972-1974) under the Senegalese Director-General Amadou-Mahtar M'Bow.[11] He died on 6 October 1976 in Paris, France. The Centre culturel de Dakar Blaise Senghor (fr) was named after him at its start in 1976.[2]
