A propos de l'auteur
Christine Keeler was born in Uxbridge, England on February 22, 1942. She left home at the age of 16 and danced in a topless club in London. She started an affair with John Profumo, a secretary of state for war in the Conservative government of Prime Minister Harold Macmillan, in 1961. After the afficher plus affair was made public, Profumo resigned in June 1963 and Macmillan resigned later in 1963. The Profumo affair was a political scandal that played a role in the downfall of the Conservative government. Keeler served six months in prison for perjury and obstruction of justice stemming from false statements she had made about another lover, Aloysius Gordon. Her memoir, Secrets and Lies written with Douglas Thompson, was published in 2012. She died on December 4, 2017 at the age of 75. (Bowker Author Biography) afficher moins
