Biography

Luc Plamondon (born March 2, 1942) is a French-Canadian lyricist and music executive. His work includes the musicals Starmania and Notre-Dame de Paris. He is the brother of Louis Plamondon, a long-serving member of the House of Commons of Canada. Plamondon has accepted honours from Canadian institutions and is a francophone nationalist and Quebec sovereigntist. He was born in Saint-Raymond. His father was a horse dealer. He learned the piano and undertook classical studies at the Petit Séminaire de Québec. He says that he entered the seminary to be a priest and that he came out a poet. However, when his interview was published, the word "poet" became "painter", hence the misunderstanding that he was an expert in painting. On the other hand, although he has never painted, he is a fan of modern painting.
