Ludovic Halévy

Halévy early in his career Ludovic Halévy (1 January 1834 – 7 May 1908) was a French author and playwright, known for his collaborations with Henri Meilhac on the libretti for Georges Bizet's ''Carmen'' and comic operas by Jacques Offenbach, including ''La belle Hélène'' (1864), ''La vie parisienne'' (1866), ''La Grande-Duchesse de Gérolstein'' (1867) and ''La Périchole'' (1868)

Born in Paris to a musical and artistic family, Halévy worked as a civil servant after leaving school, and continued to do so, while pursuing a parallel career as a playwright, librettist and novelist. He generally wrote with collaborators, including Hector Crémieux, and on two occasions, his father, but his partnership with Meilhac, an old schoolfriend, produced the works for which he is chiefly remembered.
