Biography
She is the daughter of Marcel Bleustein-Blanchet, founder of the Publicis Groupe, and the wife of Robert Badinter, a lawyer, law professor and previous minister of justice.[4] They have one daughter and two sons, Simon and Benjamin Badinter, who are at the head of Médias et régie Europe, a subsidiary company of Publicis.[5]
According to Forbes, she is one of the wealthiest French citizens with a fortune of around 1.8 billion dollars in 2012.[6]
While her interests and writings are diverse, a 2010 Marianne news magazine poll named Badinter France's "most influential intellectual", primarily on the basis of her books on feminism and motherhood.[7]
