Delphine Seyrig - Private Life

Private Life

Seyrig married (and was later divorced from) American painter Jack Youngerman (b. 1926), who had studied at the École des Beaux-Arts in Paris. Their son, Duncan Youngerman, born in Paris, 1956, is a renowned musician and composer in both France and the US. Seyrig died in Paris in 1990, aged 58, apparently from lung cancer (although some sources simply state "lung disease"). She was interred there in Cimetière du Montparnasse.

Famous quotes containing the words private life, private and/or life:

    When I think of the gold-diggers and the Mormons, the slaves and the slave-holders and the flibustiers, I naturally dream of a glorious private life. No, I am not patriotic.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    My gentleman gives the law where he is; he will outpray saints in chapel, outgeneral veterans in the field, and outshine all courtesy in the hall. He is good company for pirates, and good with academicians; so that it is useless to fortify yourself against him; he has the private entrance to all minds, and I could as easily exclude myself, as him.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    The fancy that extraterrestrial life is by definition of a higher order than our own is one that soothes all children, and many writers.
    Joan Didion (b. 1934)
