Sala Prusak
Salomea (Sala) Prusak is the first wife of Jean Paulhan. She is the eldest of the three daughters of Maurice Prusak (or Prussak) and his first wife, Bella, née Grunberg, a Jewish family from Warsaw, intellectual and wealthy. Of the three sisters, it was Sala who moved to Paris in 1904. Very intellectual, and who, according to her son Pierre "read a lot and loved France", she stayed in the pension run, at 167 rue Saint-Jacques Jeanne Paulhan, Jean Paulhan's mother.
