On December 14th 1946 Jane Mallory Birkin was born in London, UK. She began her career as an actress at the age of 20.
In 1969 she met Serge Gainsbourg while co-starring with him in the film “Slogan”, and this encounter marked the beginning of a working and personal relationship that lasted for decades. In the same year Jane and Serge released the scandalous song “Je t'aime moi non plus”, which Brian covered with Asia Argento in 2002. She also acted in the same-titled controversial 1976 film under Gainsbourg's direction.

After separating from Gainsbourg in 1980 Jane continued to work as both an actress and a singer, appearing in various independent films and recording numerous solo albums.
Birkin has resided mainly in France since the 1970s. She is the mother of photographer Kate Barry (d. 2013), actress and singer Charlotte Gainsbourg, and musician Lou Doillon. In her career she has released 14 studio and six live albums and starred in more than 70 film productions. Her humanitarian interests have also led her to work with Amnesty International on immigrant welfare and the AIDS problem.

📢 "Working with her was more than an honor. She has a dignity, a presence and an incredible generosity. She is very English, but like a lady, actually. For me, she is like a member of the royal family."
