Timeline

1903

A member of the French Resistance during the Second World War, she was the wife of journalist and politician Pierre Brossolette (1903-1944), who committed suicide while being tortured by the Gestapo.

She was born at 24 rue Vaneau in Paris, the daughter of a bank manager, Gilbert Bruel, and his wife, Marie-Thèrese Deromas.

She obtained her baccalaureat from the Institut Sainte-Clotilde in Paris; afterwards, she received a diploma from the Sorbonne and began working as a journalist, employed by papers such as Marianne and Le Populaire.

In 1940, after the fall of France, the couple began holding secret meetings at their home with a view to setting up a Resistance movement.

They set up a Russian bookshop at 89 rue de la Pompe, and this became a centre for the Resistance.

1946

In 1946, nominated by the SFIO (French Section of the Workers' International), she was one of 21 women elected to the new Conseil de la République that formed the interim government of France.

She later complained that it was difficult for her to speak up for women's rights because her position as Brossolette's widow gave her a different status.

She was Vice-President of the Council of the Republic (which replaced the Senate in the Fourth Republic).

She continued as a senator until 1959.
