Simone Lucie Ernestine Marie Bertrand de Beauvoir (9 January 1908 – 14 April 1986) was a French existentialist philosopher, writer, social theorist, and feminist activist. Though she did not consider herself a philosopher, and even though she was not considered one at the time of her death, she had a significant influence on both feminist existentialism and feminist theory.
Beauvoir held an open relationship with prominent fellow existentialist philosopher Jean-Paul Sartre. They visited Armenia together in 1963: https://www.reddit.com/r/armenia/comments/z4782m/not_too_many_people_know_this_but_jeanpaul_sartre/
