Mireille Havet ( 4 October 1898, Médan – 21 March 1932, Crans-Montana, Switzerland) was a French poet, diarist, novelist, and lyricist.
She wrote lyrics for songs composed by John Alden Carpenter and intended for Éva Gauthier.[1] She wrote a novel, Carnaval, published in 1923. She was friends with Jean Cocteau and Colette, who referred to her as "la petite poyétesse".[2]
Her diary, which she kept from 1913 to 1929, was only found again in 1995, and published in 2003.[2]
On 29 January 2009, a public square was named after her in Paris.[3]
