Stéphane Pizella(1909-1970)

Stéphane Pizella, who passed away too early at the age of 60, lived several lives. A movie actor first, he then wrote screenplays (his most famous one being Léo Joannon's Le carrefour des enfants perdus (1944)). After leaving the movie world in the mid-1940s, he became a journalist, gradually evolving to production for the French national radio. The programmes he wrote and produced were "Les nuits du bout du monde", "Ballades pour un homme seul" and "Concerto pour une ombre".
