Numa Sadoul
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Numa Sadoul is a French writer, actor, and director, born in 1947 in Brazzaville, resident in France since 1966.
As a student, he interviewed and befriended the famous Belgian comic artist Hergé, famous for his Adventures of Tintin-- an unexpected coup, as Herge gave few interviews. [1] The interviews were recorded on 14 hours of tape, and, after heavy editing by Hergé, released as a book: Tintin et moi / entretiens avec Hergé (Tintin and I - interviews with Hergé), 1975. In 2003, it was used as a basis for a documentary film Tintin and I, directed by Anders Østergaard.
Sadoul has also published interviews with other leading comic book artists such as André Franquin (Et Franquin créa la gaffe, 1986), Moebius (Entretiens avec Moebius, 1991), Jacques Tardi (Tardi, 2000), Philippe Vuillemin (Vuillemin, 2000), and Uderzo (2000), as well as books on Gotlib (Gotlib, 1974) and Moebius (Mister Moebius et Docteur Gir, 1976).
