Louis Artaud

Louis Artaud (born May 20, 1852 in Le Puy-Sainte-Réparade , Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur region , † December 12, 1937 ibid) was a French politician. He was a member of the Senate from 1920 to 1921 .

Artaud was a full-time farmer and began his political career by joining the General Council of the Bouches-du-Rhône department . With the death of Paul Peytral at the end of 1919, a seat in the Senate became vacant, for which Artaud applied. He was able to prevail in the by-election in early 1920 and was responsible for agricultural affairs in the Senate. In the regular election in January 1921 he lost and thus resigned from the Senate after only one year. From then on he lived in his hometown Le Puy-Sainte-Réparade. He died there in 1937. Artaud had been a Knight of the Legion of Honor since 1903 .
