Early life


Juliette Marie Charlotte Dietz-Monnin was born in Paris in 1887, the daughter of Jules Dietz-Monnin and Henriette Adrienne Marie Adolphine Hallier.[1] Her father's family, of Alsatian origin,[2] was socially and politically prominent; her grandfather was life senator Charles F. Dietz-Monnin,[3] and her grandmother Adèle is featured in a painting by Edgar Degas.[4][5] Because of their social standing, her choice of a stage career was considered newsworthy. She studied with Comédie-Française actress Thérèse Kolb.[6]


Career


Clarens was a stage actress and singer in Paris before 1920, a colleague to Cécile Sorel Geneviève Vix, and Yvonne Garrick.[7] Like them, she was considered a stylish beauty,[8] and she was often featured in fashion photographs in magazines and on postcards.[9][10] She lectured on fashion trends.[7]

Clarens appeared in dozens of short silent films made between 1910 and 1918; her longer works included appearances in Dette de haine (1915), Scènes de la vie de Bohème (1916), and the twelve-part serial Judex (1916), starring Musidora and René Cresté. Her final film was the seven-part serial Le travail (1920).[11]

Later in life, Clarens was a writer, publicist, and journalist,[12] author of D'avant-hier à aujourd'hui (1962).[13]


Personal life


In 1907, Clarens broke an engagement to marry French writer Francis de Croisset, reportedly to marry a Belgian banker named Lowenstein.[14] She had a daughter, Yvonne Pierre-Mortier, with writer Pierre Mortier.[12] Juliette Clarens died in Paris in 1978, aged 91 years.[1]
