Louise de Grunwald, who died 6 June, 2002, in London, was the widow of
Anatole de Grunwald, (1910-67), the author and film producer.

She was Louise, daughter of Carlos de Armada, and married de Grunwald
in 1940.

Her husband, the son of a Tsarist diplomat, was barely seven years old
when he fled his revolution-torn homeland. Educated at Cambridge and
the Sorbonne, Anatoly de Grunwald worked for several years as a print
journalist in Britain, turning to screenwriting in 1939. After
functioning on the production staff of Two Cities productions, de
Grunwald and his younger brother, Dmitri (1914-1990), formed their own
production company in 1946. Keeping his hand in the writing game, de
Grunwald contributed to the scripts of many of his productions,
including The Winslow Boy (1950) and The Holly and the Ivy (1953).
Anatole de Grunwald's final film efforts included the star-studded The
V.I.P.'s (1963) and The Yellow Rolls Royce (1965). {~ Hal Erickson,
All Movie Guide}.

Louise de Grunwald was widowed, 13 January, 1967. She leaves a son,
Alexander, and a daughter, Elizabeth.

The funeral takes place at the Russian Orthodox Cathedral, Ennismore
Gardens, London SW7, Friday 14 June, 2002, at 11 a.m. followed by
burial at Chiddingstone, Kent.
