Full Biography
|Alain Jaubert (1940 – 15 March 2025) was a French writer and journalist, producer and director of television, producer of the magazine Les Arts - France 3 and Oceaniques from 1990 to 1993 and author and director of the series "Palettes [fr]" since 1988. On 29 May 1971, he was victim of a "beating" in a police van when he wanted to accompany a person taken to the police station. The case made a great noise considering the personality of the journalist, then working for Le Nouvel Observateur. Jaubert died on 15 March 2025, at the age of 84.
