Eisenhower: upon the liberation of Paris in 1945 Chevalier was threatened with death by firing squad for having entertained in France under the Nazi occupation. Chevalier who had been living with a Jewish woman at the time contended that he had only done so in order to facilitate a prisoner swap. Thanks to a word from General Eisenhower himself Chevalier was kept alive until an investigation could be carried out which proved that Chevalier was telling the truth.<br style="">The French actor cabaret singer and entertainer Maurice Chevalier is perhaps best known for his signature songs including "Louise" "Mimi" "Valentine" and "Thank Heaven for Little Girls" and for his films including The Love Parade and The Big Pond. His trademark attire was a boater hat which he always wore on stage with a tuxedo. In 1958 he starred with Leslie Caron and Louis Jourdan in Gigi and in the early 1960s he made eight films including Can-Can in 1960 and Fanny the following year.  The success of Gigi prompted Hollywood to give him an Academy Honorary Award that year for achievements in entertainment. <br style=""> Doubleday & Company, Inc. hardcover books
