Pierre Séjourné (1930–1993), a Parisian bookseller and collector of fine bindings, a flutist, and a lover of literature and classical music, was as much a part of Parisian artistic and literary circles as he was of the world of the Decorative Arts and its schools, thanks to his uncle, the architect and member of the Académie des Beaux-Arts, Albert Laprade. Also an author and actor, he devoted himself to writing and performing his own plays, which were staged primarily in the Paris region.
