Biography
Freustié was raised in a wealthy family whose father was a wine merchant. After his secondary education at the Institution of Montesquieu Libourne, he studied medicine at the Faculty of Medicine of Bordeaux and then in Algiers. He interned at the Hospital of Bordeaux in 1936, then he moved to Paris where he became a medical officer in 1950.
He attended the café Le Procope, with Jacques Brenner and Claude Perdriel, and their literary magazine, Le Cahier des saisons. He knew Françoise Sagan, Bernard Frank, Jean-Louis Curtis and Francis Nourissier, and met with great writers like Jacques Chardonne, Paul Morand, Jean Cocteau and Eugène Ionesco.
Freustié wrote for the France Observateur as a literary critic beginning in 1961. Retaining his position as literary critic for the Nouvel Observateur in 1964, he was also literary adviser to Denoël.
The Prix Jean-Freustié is awarded annually.[3] His papers are held at l'Institut Mémoires de l'édition contemporaine.[4]
