Virginie Claude

Born and raised in Geneva, the eldest daughter of four children from school teacher parents, Virginie took her first steps on stage at the age of 8... and the passion never left her. However, she went on to develop two different careers before fully focusing on her artistic urges. After graduating with an MA in Literature, she was a Latin and French high school teacher in Geneva. Later on, she graduated from HEC Geneva with an MS in Business Management, taught HRM classes at University of Geneva, and worked as a management consultant for several years. Always driven by her passion for humanity, she got involved in local politics and served on the board of several non-profit organizations.

In her thirties, she decided to follow her first love: she quit her job, acted in several short films, wrote her first novellas and poems, and then went to Paris to attend Cours Florent acting school. Claude graduated after completing curricula in both French and English. She then co-founded a theatre company in Paris ("Les Intimes"), and started to write plays, songs and screenplays for movies, TV and new media. She is currently working between Paris and Los Angeles.
