Thierry CohenBorn in Casablanca, Morocco, Thierry Cohen moved to France at the age of two, as part of a family with five children. After a dramatic childhood, he found comfort in reading books—particularly the works of Americans such as John Fante, Ernest Hemingwy, and Philip Roth—and eventually became a writer himself. He penned Still with Me following the suicide of his best friend, in hopes of healing his own pain and helping others who may be considering suicide. In 2007, the book won France’s Grand Prix Jean d’Ormesson. Today, Cohen lives in Lyon with his wife and four children. Read More Read Less
