Francois de Massot joined the Trotskyist movement in France just after the end of the Second World War. He supported the Lambert wing after the split with Pierre Frank and Michel Pablo in 1953. He was a fluent English speaker and from an early time responsible for the link between the Lambert group in France and the Healy group in Britain. In this capacity he regularly attended conferences of the Socialist Labour League in the 1960s. He is the author of a book on the May-June Events in France, has been editor of La Verite the OCI journal and was in charge of the international work of the Organising Committee for the Reconstruction of the Fourth International and its successors. Lately he has been chairman of the CERMTRI archive of Trotskyism in Paris.
