Gilles Carle

Died in 2009

Gilles Carle (1928-2009), born in Maniwaki, worked for five years as a graphic designer in television at Radio-Canada and co-founded the Éditions de l'Hexagone with Gaston Miron and Louis Portugais. He then joined the National Film Board of Canada, where he turned a commissioned documentary on snow removal in Montreal into his first fiction film, and went on to build an abundant body of work as a filmmaker, in feature films as well as in television series. Suffering from Parkinson's disease, he kept working for several years, and died in Granby.
