Biography

[edit]

Born on 27 December 1930 in Paris, Millet moved to the commune of Le Vigan in the Gard department to set up his general partitioner's office. He then joined the PCF.[2] He was first elected as a deputy of the National Assembly in 1967 for a mandate lasting just over a year, in which he represented Gard's 4th constituency. He was elected for a second time in 1973, defeating Robert Verdier [fr] of the Socialist Party and Pierre Jalu [fr] of the Union of Democrats for the Republic.[3] In 1978, he formed an alliance with Fernand Balez, Mayor of Saint-Christol-lès-Alès.[4]

Millet was defeated by socialist Alain Journet [fr] in 1981 and subsequently joined the cabinet of Minister of Health Jack Ralite. He was then elected back into the National Assembly for a third term in 1988.[5] He also served as mayor of Alès from 1985 to 1989.[6]

Married to Marie-Thérèse Delaby, Millet had one daughter.[7] He died in Saint-Leu-la-Forêt on 1 February 2024, at the age of 93.[8]
