Born in Hanoi, to an Eurasian mother and a French father, she emigrated to France in 1946, and died in Paris. After studying law, she turned to theater and singing. She taught history in Marseille and managed a beach in Saint-Tropez before founding, with Aimée Mori, the legendary Katmandou, the first lesbian nightclub in Paris. She was often referred to as "Grande prêtresse des nuits parisiennes féminines" ["Grand priestess of the female Parisian nights"].
