Périer, Jean-Marie

(Jean-Marie Pillu / February 1, 1940, Neuilly-sur-Seine, Hauts-de-Seine, France - )

   The son of singer Henri Salvador (1917-2008) and actress Jacqueline Porel (b. 1918), he was the legitimate son of actor François Périer (1919-2002), who raised him. He started as a photographer for such magazines as Paris-Match (1958), Télé 7 Jours (1960), and Salut les Copains (1962-1970) and was an occasional still photographer (1967 Bang-Bang / L'ammazzo o la sposo, Serge Piollet, France / Italy). He authored two auto­biographies (2001 L'Enfant gâté, Editions XO; 2004 Le Temps d'apprendre à vivre, Editions XO), and his photo­graphs were gathered in several books (1995 Mes An­nées 60, Editions Filipacchi; 1999 Mes Années 60, tome 2, Editions Filipacchi, 2000 Mes Années 60: Lintégrale, Editions Filipacchi; 2002 Flash, Editions Filipacchi; Des Amis de tous Poils . . . des Chats, Agnès Vienot Editions). He gave up cinema in the early 1980s to resume his career as a photographer.
