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:

    The private life of one man shall be a more illustrious monarchy,—more formidable to its enemy, more sweet and serene in its influence to its friend, than any kingdom in history. For a man, rightly viewed, comprehendeth the particular natures of all men.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    ... it is a commonplace that men like war. For peace, in our society, with the feeling we have then that it is feeble-minded to strive except for one’s own private profit, is a lonely thing and a hazardous business. Over and over men have proved that they prefer the hazards of war with all its suffering. It has its compensations.
    Ruth Benedict (1887–1948)

    The best thing to do with the best things in life is to give them up.
    Dorothy Day (1897–1980)
