Arnaud Sagnard was born the same year as Leonardo DiCaprio with whom he bears no resemblance. After studying literature, this Parisian who was raised in the suburbs, chose to be a journalist after trying almost every possible position in the world of media—from photo editor to reporter and investigative journalist to columnist. He’s one of the co-founders of the french edition of « GQ » where he spent seven years. Currently he’s an editor in chief of « L’Obs », France’s first weekly magazine. According to his family, he spends too much time writing books that are not always published. However, so far, two have been: one non-fiction about hipsters « Are you on the list ? Essay on the hip tyranny » and a novel « Bronson » about a man obsessed by the actor Charles Bronson, nominated for four literary prizes. He comforts himself driving a 1982 Lancia Beta 2000 HPE and traveling around California with his family. A die-hard Lakers fan, he truly believes that « Kobe was the glue that held the world together ».
