Biography

François was born in Le Havre in 1908. During World War II she was a member of the French resistance. After the war she was elected to the municipal council of Nevers.[1]

She was a French Communist Party (PCF) candidate in Nièvre department in the 1945 National Assembly elections. The second-placed candidate on the PCF list, she was elected to parliament, becoming one of the first group of women in the National Assembly. She was re-elected in the July 1946 elections and served on the Justice and General Legislation during her first and second terms.[1] She headed the PCF list in Nièvre in the November 1946 elections, after which she became a member of the Family, Population and Public Health Commission.[1] She was re-elected again in 1951, but did not stand in the 1956 elections due to poor health and the need to care for her daughter due to her husband's ill health.[1]

François died in the 13th arrondissement of Paris in 1970.[1]
