In October 1943, with the threat of capture being too great, she escaped France to England via Gibraltar. Having reached the safety of London in December 1943, she joined the Bureau Central de Renseignements et d'Action (BCRA), the Free French intelligence service. She returned to France following the liberation of Paris in August 1944. In recognition of her war service, she was awarded the Croix de Guerre. Considered overlooked by the post-war government, she was made a Chevalier of the Légion d'honneur in 2016. She died in 2017, having reached the aged of 103. (en)
