Proprietor of the Shakespeare & Co. bookstore in Paris -- via the New York Daily News.Of course, Adrienne Monnier and Sylvia Beach ran the original Shakespeare and Co. in Paris, but Beach willed her stock and the store name in 1962, 11 years after George had opened his own English-language book shop at 37 rue de la Bucherie. A delightful eccentric and cultural sparkplug!
