Journalist for Libération and member of the freelance collective Les Plumé·es, Camille Paix is also an author and poet. She has a keen interest in women’s history and cemeteries, two passions that have led her to draw and write portraits of over two hundred women, gathered in two books published by Cambourakis (Mère Lachaise, 100 portraits pour déterrer le matrimoine funéraire and Mère Lachaise, un tour de France du matrimoine funéraire). Very present on social networks, her Instagram account @MereLachaise now boasts over 16,000 subscribers.
