Petru Dumitriu

Writer

Petru Dumitriu (8 May 1924 – 6 April 2002) was a Romanian-born novelist who wrote both in Romanian and in French. Dumitriu was born in Baziaș, in the Banat region of Romania. His father was a Romanian army officer and his mother was Hungarian and spoke to her husband and son mostly in French, so that French was Petru Dumitriu's second language from childhood. After school in Romania, Dumitriu studied philosophy at the University of Munich with a Humboldt scholarship, but his studies were interrupted in 1944 when Romania changed sides in the Second World War. After becoming a member of the Romanian Writers' Union committee in 1950, he became editor-in-chief at Viața Românească in 1953. In 1960, Dumitriu fled from Romania to West Berlin, moved to Frankfurt am Main and later to Bad Godesberg, Germany, afinally settling in Metz, France. He did not return to Romania until 1996. He was married twice: with Henriette Yvonne Stahl, a French-born Romanian writer 24 years his senior, in 1956 (they divorced after about one week), and the same year with Irina Medrea (divorced in 1988). He had two daughters: Irene (born 1959) and Helene (born 1961). Source: Article "Petru Dumitriu" from Wikipedia in English, licensed under CC-BY-SA 3.0.
