- Wikipedia, August 22, 2017(Léo Malet, born 7 March 1909 in Montpellier; died 3 March 1996 in Châtillon; French crime novelist and surrealist; he had little formal education and began work as a cabaret singer at "La Vache Enragee" in Montmartre, Paris in 1925; in the 1930s, he was closely aligned with the Surrealists, and was close friends with André Breton, René Magritte and Yves Tanguy, amongst others; during this time, he published several volumes of poetry; though he dabbled in many genres, Malet is most famous for Nestor Burma, the anti-hero of Les Nouveaux Mystères de Paris) ( (Record created from: The IMAGINE Thesaurus - The Israel Museum Jerusalem Thesaurus - Artist names authority file) )
