Bianca Lamblin

Bianca Lamblin (born Bienenfeld; 29 April 1921[1] – 5 November 2011[2][3]) was a French writer who had affairs with philosophers Jean-Paul Sartre and Simone de Beauvoir[4] for a number of years.[5][6][7][8] In her book Mémoires d'une jeune fille dérangée (published in English as A Disgraceful Affair), she wrote that, while a student at Lycée Molière, she was sexually exploited by her teacher Beauvoir, who was in her 30s.[9][10][5][7] In correspondence between Sartre and Beauvoir, the pseudonym Louise Védrine was used when referring to Bianca in Lettres au Castor and Lettres à Sartre.[5][7]
