Suzanne Renaud (30 September 1889 â 21 January 1964) was a French poet and translator.
Renaud was born on 30 September 1889 in Lyon. She moved from Lyon to Grenoble in 1894, and during World War I she worked at the military infirmary there. In 1926 she married the Czechoslovak poet Bohuslav Reynek in Grenoble, who had come to seek her permission to translate her poetry in 1923. For the next ten years they divided their time between France and Czechoslovakia, settling in the latter country definitively in 1936. She translated her husband's works into French, as he did for her. In the years 1947âÂÂ1959 she corresponded with the French writer Henri Pourrat. She also translated the Czech poets VladimÃÂr Holan and Frantià ¡ek Halas into French.
They had two sons: Daniel Reynek (1928âÂÂ2014), a photographer, and Jià ÂàReynek (1929âÂÂ2014), a graphic artist, poet and translator.
She died on 21 January 1964 in HavlÃÂÃÂkà ¯v Brod.
