Antoine Pinay, French prime minister
Antoine Pinay (December 30, 1891 - December 13, 1994) served as Prime Minister of France from 1952 - 1953 (technically, "president of the Council"). One of France's most spirited leaders after World War II, Pinay is today remembered as the longest lived Prime Minister.
Antoine Pinay was born in Saint-Symphorien-sur-Coise, in the Rhône département. He was mayor of Saint-Chamond (Loire) from 1929 to 1977. He served in the French National Assembly for nearly fifteen years before being named Premier. He later served as Finance Minister in the cabinet of General Charles De Gaulle in 1958.
