JeanCocteau

I am a poet, writer, artist, and film maker, born Jean Maurice Eugene Clement Cocteau to a wealthy family on July 5, 1889 in a small town near Paris, France. My father committed suicide when I was about 10 years old.In 1900, I entered a private school and was expelled in 1904. After my expulsion from school, I ran away to Marseilles where I lived in the "red light district" under a false name. Police discovered me in Marseilles and returned me to my uncle's care.I later fell in love with an actress named Madeleine Carlier. She was 30 years old at the time. She later ended the relationship. ..This profile was edited with Thomas' myspace editor™ V2.5
