Barbara
French singer. She took her stage name from her grandmother, Varvara Brodsky, a native of Odesa, Russian Empire. Barbara became a famous cabaretière in the late 1950s in Paris, known as La Chanteuse de minuit, before she started composing her own tracks, which brought her to fame. Her most famous songs include "Dis, quand reviendras-tu ?", "Ma plus belle histoire d'amour" and "L'Aigle noir", the latter of which sold over 1 million copies in just twelve hours.
