Former L'Express editor, Philippe Grumbach, spied for the Soviet Union for 35 years
In 1954, Grumbach was hired to work at L'Express by Jean-Jacques Servan-Schreiber, its founder.
From then onwards, Grumbach began rubbing shoulders with some of France's most prominent figures of the 20th Century.
He helped rehabilitate the then-senator - and future president - Francois Mitterand's reputation when he was accused of staging a fake assassination in 1960.
He was close to the powerful Servan-Schreiber, President Valéry Giscard d'Estaing and prominent statesman Pierre Mendès France, among others.
Actors Alain Delon and Isabelle Adjani were guests at his 1980 wedding, where writer Francoise Sagan and Pierre Berge, co-founder of Yves Saint Laurent, were the legal witnesses.
