Two smiles - Henri Charriere known as Papillon in Caracas 1971 with 2 PIPs
Henri Charrière, known as Papillon, was a French writer, convicted as a murderer, he did not commit. He wrote the novel Papillon, a memoir of his incarceration in and escape from a penal colony in French Guiana.
I met him in Caracas and had the pleasure to take photos of him.
Here he is with his wife, showings off his hat collection
