Lucie Aubrac

Lucie Aubrac (b 1912) is a French history teacher and member of the French Resistance.

Lucie Aubrac was born Lucie Bernard June 28 1912 as a daughter of a wine grower. In 1939 she married Raymond Samuel, who will be known after the war as Raymond Aubrac .

After the fall of France Lucie joined the Liberation-sud resistance group in Lyons when her husband formed it. Later she followed him to group of Charles Delestraint. In 1941 they joined forces with Emmanuel d'Astier to run an underground newspaper Libération.

In June 21 1943 Gestapo captured Raymond alongside Jean Moulin and he was taken to Montluc prison. Lucie and her comrades released Raymond and thirteen other resistance members in October 21 1943. Because their cover had been blown, in February 1944 Lucioe, Raymond and their first child escaped to London. The Aubrac name was the last alias they had used in France before their flight to England and the one they kept afterwards.

After the war Lucie Aubrac served on the consultative committees of the provisional government of the Charles de Gaulle. Her degree to teach history was also restored and she eventually returned to teaching. She also campaigned for human rights.

In 1984 Lucie Aubrac published her memoirs Ils partiront dans l'ivresse (translated in English as Outwitting the Gestapo). The movie Lucie Aubrac is loosely based on the events around the release her husband.
