Early life and education

edit

Salomé Saqué was born in Seine-et-Marne,[1] the eldest of three children. After she was born, her parents decided to leave the Paris region and she grew up in Ardèche.[2][3] She went to boarding school in Aubenas.[3][4]

After taking her baccalauréat, she studied history and geography at the Lycée Édouard-Herriot in Lyon.[3] She then attended Lumière University Lyon 2 to study political science and English. She became interested in the Spanish left wing movement Podemos and joined the Erasmus programme at the Complutense University of Madrid.[3]

At the same time, she took courses in drama at the Regional Conservatory of Lyon and played a number of roles on stage.[3][5]

Career

edit

Saqué spent three years as an intern for the newspaper Le Monde diplomatique and then France 24.[3][6]

She has since worked for the website Blast, the television channels LCP, Arte, and France 5,[7][8] and the radio network France Info.[9]

Her first book, Sois jeune et tais-toi (Be Young and Shut Up) received critical acclaim and was a bestseller on its release.[10] Le Monde said it "paints a nuanced portrait of French youth subjected to ecological and economic crises, while avoiding declaring war on the boomers".[11]
