PIERRE BERGÉ

Pierre Bergé—publisher, opera impressario, former president of Arcad SIDA, patron of the arts, and life and business partner of Yves Saint Laurent—died today in Saint-Rémy-de-Provence.

He is survived by his husband Madison Cox, the landscape architect and director of the Fondation Jardin Majorelle.
