Born in Algeria, when it was still a French department, I was exiled to France with the rest of my family after its independence. After studying law, I devoted myself to journalism, mainly in the field of cinema, which was and remains one of my passions. During my conscript time, I was hired by a French publishing house to write the memoirs of actress Romy Schneider, and went on to write an essay on cinema, which led me to organise several festivals on this theme before becoming a film distributor and then a producer.
In 1983, I moved to Hollywood, where I participated in the production of an action film directed by Simon Nuchtern: "Savage Dawn". Back to France, I became a full-time ghost writer. Between 1986 and 1991, I collaborated in the writing of more than twenty novels and essays.
I returned to journalism in 1992 and in 18 years I made nearly 20 documentaries in conflict zones, mainly in the Middle East, while publishing articles in many newspapers, including Le Figaro and the Jerusalem Post. This exciting experience allowed me to get back to writing novels. "Beyond Red Lines", my first book published in English, reflects my knowledge of terrorist and secret service circles. I now divide my life between New York, Paris and Tel Aviv, which has become my main residence.
