At 73, Yvette Neliaz Chooses A Life Of Risk Over Security

“My big, big dream was to have a very intense life, not a boring life,” says 73-year-old nightlife photographer, Yvette Neliaz. Yvette is the toast of Paris and neither having been temporarily homeless nor living with bipolar disorder has muted her colorful self-expression. The secret to Yvette’s happiness has been to choose risk over security and find the humor in the challenges life hands you. Yvette sums up her life philosophy plainly: “If we didn’t have problems, we would be dead.”
