"She writes as she lives: she runs, runs," Francoise Giroud used to say of her. For thirty years it was one of the great feathers of MC. Michèle Manceaux who has just disappeared, has shaken the way to conduct the interviews by refusing complacency or disguised promo, two wounds of the trade. This woman with piercing eyes, willingly acerbic and sometimes cruel when she felt that it was justified, became known to MC from 1978 thanks to her unique way of interviewing those who were not yet called of people but more beautifully celebrities.

Michèle Manceaux's great interviews quickly became cult at the point where some readers rushed to MC to hear her voice so special. The Paw Manceaux? Long-lasting encounters woven with confidences of confidence, of traits of mind, of flashes, of privacy consented. Michèle manages to get her "stars" to speak: all those celebrities of cinema, music, theater and books who were engaging with her with infectious enthusiasm even if it was not without risk. The questions are sometimes as disturbing as a release of arrows to the curare ...

But one can only remember one thing: the impression of having shared for a few pages confidences never avowed, because not always avowable ... Writer of talent, Michèle Manceaux is also renowned for its feminist commitment. She signed without hesitation in 1971, the Manifesto of 343 sluts for the legalization of abortion and participates in many progressive fights. Michèle will remain especially the one who had found the keys to open doors forbidden to the public. A whole art. The one of the greatest.
