Françoise (whose theatrical nickname is “Frenchie”)
toured the U.S. and performed as a featured dancer
throughout Europe on stage, television and in the
movies. She was last seen dancing on “STAR SEARCH

stylist in the U.S., she embarked on a third career
as a fine artist. Her paintings have been exhibited
in galleries, one-woman-shows, art festivals and art
centers in Williamstown, MA, and in Sarasota and Bradenton,

is Françoise’s first book and the story
of a colorful and extraordinary life fearlessly lived…
