    Biography

    Actress

    Dorner made her cinema debut in 1975 thanks to Éric Le Hung, who cast her in one of the main roles in Raging Fists along with Philippe Lavot [fr], Marie-Georges Pascal and Tony Gatlif, who co-wrote the script. She can be seen in 1981 in Haute surveillance by Pierre-Alain Jolivet [fr] and in 1984 with Pierre Richard in The Twin. Finally, in 1992 she played in Les amies de ma femme by Didier Van Cauwelaert with Michel Leeb, Christine Boisson and Catherine Arditi [fr].

    Although her film career remains quite modest, Dorner has been very active in television since the late 1960s. She starred in several TV movies, notably as the titular character in La Petite Fadette in 1978. In 1985, she played Commissioner Françoise Valence in the series "Madame et ses flics". She also adapted one of her plays, Le Parfum de Jeannette, for television in 1996.

    Her plays L'Hirondelle and Le Parfum de Jeannette, cowritten with Jean-Claude Carrière, earned her the Prix du Jeune Théâtre Béatrix Dussane-André Roussin. In 2004, she was awarded the Prix Goncourt du premier roman for La Fille du rang derrière [fr], critically acclaimed in France but also in the United States. In 2006, La Douceur assassine won the Prix Émile Augier awarded by the Académie française and, in 2011, she received the Prix Roger-Nimier for Tartelettes, jarretelles et bigorneaux.
