Ève Curie, the younger daughter of the famous scientist Marie Curie, was a musician, writer, war reporter and humanitarian. Despite holding a degree in science, she decided to pursue her interests in arts and humanities. She started her career as a pianist but later gained recognition for writing her mother Marie Curie’s biography. After receiving praise for her writing, she became a war reporter and recorded her experiences in another book, which was also well received by the readers. She visited various war-torn countries and did a great amount of work for UNICEF along with her husband Henry Labouisse. On her 100th birthday, the Secretary General of the United Nations, Kofi Annan, paid her a visit, while the US president and the French president sent their greetings to her.
