The Jewish daughter of an adviser to Morocco’s King Mohammed VI and writer Katia Brami has herself become an adviser to the president of France.
Audrey Azoulay was named Culture Minister last week during a cabinet shuffle that followed the long-expected resignation of Foreign Minister Laurent Fabius.
Azoulay, 43, a native-born Moroccan, was named as Culture and Communications Adviser to President Francois Hollande.
She has previously served in leadership positions in the National Center of Cinema in France, and in other civil service posts as well.
