Giraud began singing in 1946 with "Mademoiselle Hortensia", or La Danseuse est Créole. With her husband, former Compagnon de la Chanson Marc Herrand, she wrote an autobiographical book in 2005, published by Editions du Signe in Strasbourg, about how she became internationally famous. Giraud was well known in Japan, where she sang for a long time, responding to the audience expectations since her first visit in 1955. She died in August 2014 at the age of 97.[1]
