by J. (Joseph) Jacquin
Born on November 23, 1866, in Saint-Bonnet-Tronçais in the Allier department of France, Joseph Jacquin built a career as a journalist and dramatist. Library and reference sources agree on his life dates, recording his death in Paris on January 9, 1949.
French reference pages describe him primarily as a journalist and playwright, while book-history records also connect him with illustrated and juvenile publishing. Project Gutenberg’s author listing shows that a number of his works entered the public domain and continued to circulate for later readers.
Although basic biographical details are easy to confirm, a reliable portrait was not clearly available from the pages reviewed, so no profile image is included here.
