Back to Pauline Trigère – Back to Trigère Branch Recordings

Here are videos of Pauline Trigère with her family and friends, as well as interviews Jane conducted with her aunt. Below are two telephone conversations Jane recorded with Pauline. In the first, from January 1994, Pauline talks about her life and family.

In the second interview, from July 1998, Pauline discusses the beginnings of the Trigère family business in Paris, and of the transition to New York.

Below, Jane and Pauline visit Israel and the Kibbutz Kfar Giladi in the 1960s.

Pauline had a home designed and built in upstate New York, lovingly referred to as “La Tortue”, the Turtle. Here she gives a tour; and below a tour of both La Tortue and a previous home.

Above, the Trigères from France visit La Tortue and New York City sometime in the 1960s or 70s.
