Life and career

Jobert was born in Algiers, Algeria, to a Sephardic Jewish Pied-Noir family,[1][2][3] the daughter of Andrée Azoulay and Charles Jobert, who served in the French Air Force. She came to Metropolitan France when aged eight. Besides acting, she has been the author and/or narrator of (mainly children's) audio books.
