Irène Litz-Barré is a dedicated writer, educator, mother and grandmother. Born in 1928 in the French speaking part of Belgium, she was lovingly raised by a police commander father and an artistic mother before experiencing the shock of World War Two during her adolescent years. After the war, she married a French engineer and travelled throughout Europe and the United States. After her husband's tragic death in 1963, she became an official hostess for Bureau France in Zurich, Switzerland and travelled throughout Europe representing French culture. She married an American teacher of French Literature in 1966 and settled in central Switzerland. She became a mother and later a French teacher at a prestigious Swiss international boarding school. After her husband's passing in 2003, she moved to Brussels, Belgium before joining her son in the United States in 2006. She now lives in Milwaukee, WI and spends her time writing and being a doting grandmother to her grandson.
