Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Infobox person Colette Reynaud (1872–1965)[1] was a French feminist, socialist and pacifist journalist. In 1917, she was the co-founder and director of the weekly newspaper La Voix des femmes (Women's voice).

Career

Together with Louise Bodin, Reynaud founded the newspaper La Voix des femmes on October 31, 1917,[2] to promote women's right to vote.[3] Reynaud managed the newspaper while Bodin assumed the role of editor-in-chief,[4] attracting the participation of celebrities such as Séverine, Madeleine Pelletier, Hélène Brion, Henri Barbusse, and Marcel Cachin. The newspaper was launched in the middle of the World War I in a context of repression, symbolized in November 1917 by the arrest of the teacher Hélène Brion, accused of defeatist propaganda.

From December 1, 1922, Reynaud attempted to publish the newspaper on a daily basis, with Noëlie Drous as editor-in-chief, but quickly gave up such frequency. It continued to appear until 1937.[5] In 1930, Marguerite Durand referred to Reynaud as one of the "remarkable professionals" of women's journalism of her day, noting that she kept more to a management than to an editorial role.[6]

The historian of socialism, Julien Chuzeville, thought that Reynaud was probably a member of the French Section of the Workers' International (SFIO) when she joined the committee of the Third Communist International, adding that she undoubtedly was a member of the French Communist Party when it split in 1920.[5] In October 1920, Reynaud also joined the Action Committee for the release of imprisoned militants, notably Fernand Loriot, Boris Souvarine, and Pierre Monatte.

After the war, Reynaud became a member of the committee of the French branch of the Women's League Against War, then served as secretary of the Шаблон:Lang (People's Union for Universal Peace). In 1926, she co-founded the Шаблон:Lang (Women's Action League) to push for the immediate acceptance of women's suffrage under the leadership of Marthe Bray.[5]

Personal life

A Freemason, Reynaud was a member of the lodge Le Droit Humain,[5] and of the fraternal association of journalists,[7] where she associated with Camille Chautemps, Marcel Huart, Aristide Quillet, and Alexandre Varenne.[8]

Married to a doctor, Reynaud was the mother of two children.
