LUCIENNE BOYER was a french story-teller and singer best known for her song "Parlez-moi d'amour".
She got her start working as a part-time model while singing in cabarets of Montparnasse, when an office position at a prominent Parisian theater opened the door for her and within a few years she was cast singing in the major Parisian music halls.
In 1927, Boyer sang at a concert where she was seen by Lee Shubert, owner of Herald Square Theatre, who immediately offered her a contract to come to Broadway. Boyer spent nine months in New York City, returning to perform there and South America numerous times throughout the 1930s.
