'''Serge Groussard''' (18 January 1921 – 2 January 2016) was a French journalist and writer, the son of colonel [[Georges Groussard (resistant)|Georges Groussard]] and Véra Bernstein-Woolbrunn.

==Biography==
Serge Groussard studied at the Calvin Institute in [[Montauban]], at the [[La Rochelle]] high school, and at the Lycée Gouraud in [[Rabat]], Morocco. He later attended the Faculty of Arts and the [[Sciences Po]], both in Paris.

In September 1939, he volunteered for the duration of the [[World War II|Second World War]] and participated as a pupil infantry officer in the fighting on the [[Loire]]. An information officer for the [[French Resistance]], he was arrested in January 1943 by the [[Gestapo]], sentenced to thirty years in prison, and deported to Germany. He recounted this experience in his first published work, ''Crépuscule des vivants'', in 1946.

In 1953, Groussard was a military parachutist. From October 1956 to October 1957 and again in 1959, he served as lieutenant, then captain, in Algeria, to which he dedicated the narrative ''Écrivain''.

His career was devoted to writing novels and stories, for ''[[Le Figaro]]'' from 1954 to 1962 and ''[[L'Aurore (1944 newspaper)|l'Aurore]]'' from 1962 to 1969.
