Description
Born in Italy in 1921, Yves Montand's family relocated to France in 1923 to escape Italy's Fascist regime. He grew up in Marseille, where, as a young man, he worked in his sister's beauty salon and later on the docks. He began a career in show business as a music-hall singer. In 1944, he was discovered by Édith Piaf in Paris and she made him part of her act. Montand went on to international recognition as a singer and actor, starring in numerous films. His instantly recognizable crooner songs, especially those about Paris, became instant classics. He was one of the most famous performers at the famous Paris Olympia music hall. During his career, Montand acted in a number of American motion pictures as well as on Broadway. Although known primarily as an actor outside of France, Yves Montand was immensely popular in his adopted country and occupies an important place as a postwar French popular singer.
