Jean Seberg Biography
Educated at Iowa University, this blonde actress landed the title role in Otto Preminger's Saint Joan after a much-publicized contest involving some 18,000 hopefuls. The failure of that film, and the only moderate success of her next, Bonjour tristesse, combined to stall Seberg's career, until her role in Jean-Luc Godard's landmark feature, Breathless, brought her renewed international attention. Seberg gave a memorable performance as a schizophrenic in the title role of Robert Rossen's Lilith and was directed by husbands François Moreuil, in Récréation, La, and Romain Gary, in Birds in Peru. Later in her life Seberg became involved in anti-war politics and was the target of an undercover campaign by the FBI to discredit her because of her association with several members of the Black Panther party. She was found dead under mysterious circumstances in a Paris suburb in 1979.



Trivia
Buried in the exclusive Montparnasse cemetery, Paris, France.
Gave birth to her son Alexandre Diego Gary in July 1963.
Daughter Nina died as a result of complications sustained from Jean overdosing on sleeping pills during her pregnancy, on 25 August 1970, two days after her birth.
On every subsequent anniversary of her daughter Nina's death, Jean attempted suicide. In 1978, she somehow survived an attempt, throwing herself under a train on the Paris Metro.
Committed suicide in the back seat of an automobile in a Paris suburb. Her body wasn't found until 11 days later.
Her second marriage to second husband/Russian novelist Romain Gary was tempestuous and profoundly unhappy due to his obsessive, Svengali-like influence on her. Divorced in 1970, she committed suicide in 1979 while he took his own life by gunshot the very next year.
Kim Novak wanted to play the role eventually given to Seberg in the film musical Paint Your Wagon (1969). Actresses considered for Seberg's role in Lilith (1964) included Natalie Wood, Yvette Mimieux, Samantha Eggar, Sarah Miles and Diane Cilento.
Although being still married to Dennis Berry, she went through a form of marriage to Algerian playboy Ahmed Hasni, but the ceremony had no legal force (31 May 1979).
Born to Edward Seberg and Dorothy Benson.
Was a huge fan of Marlon Brando, since seeing his screen debut in the movie The Men (1950). As a teenager, Seberg wrote to Brando and invited him to stay with her parents in Iowa. She met him years later and Brando asked her to renew the invitation.
Wrote and published an open letter to drug addicts' in the daily paper Libération: 27th February 1978.
