Biography


He was the son of a judicial counsellor to the French ambassador to the United States. Charles served as attaché to France's ambassador to the Vatican, Berlin, then Washington.

In 1914, he became First Secretary at the St Petersburg embassy, and later served in Athens and Vienna.[1] From 1928 to 1933, he represented France in Ankara and then became ambassador to Rome from 1933 to 1935.

In Rome he married Marie de Rohan-Chabot (1876–1951),[2] daughter of the Duke and the Duchess of Rohan and widow of prince Lucien Murat. She was a writer, galleriste and landscape and portrait painter.

With Paul Claudel, Maurice Garçon, Marcel Pagnol, Jules Romains and Henri Mondor, he was one of six people elected on 4 April 1946 to the Académie française in the second group election to fill the numerous empty seats caused by the lack of elections during the German occupation of France.

Chambrun was a Grand officer of the Légion d'Honneur.
