Information trouvée : Tom Bishop died at his home in New York on January 2 at the age of 92. He was one
of the last great figures of a generation of American intellectuals who reshaped the
transatlantic world after the war. Tom Bishop was born in 1929, in a Jewish family
of the Viennese bourgeoisie. Nine years later, at the time of the Anschluss, his family
fled, first to Hungary, then to Paris. Then, faced with the collapse of France, a
hasty departure for New York was organized in the spring of 1940. Student, he deepened
his taste for French literature at New York University, before completing with a doctorate
at Berkeley on Luigi Pirandello, a rare Italian infidelity. Tom Bishop then joined
New York University (NYU), which he never left. At the age of 30, he took over the
management of the French House, created in 1957. Throughout his career, he remained
attached to this institution and participated in making it one of the most brilliant
centers of French culture in the United States
