Viviane Elder

Viviane Elder (born 23 May 1904; died 1960 in Cannes) was an aviator, driver and actress from France.[1]

In April 1936, Elder and two passengers caused concern when they were delayed for two days during a car rally in the Saharan desert. The magazine La Vie Arienne published a cover story on Elder titled "Viviane Elder - Perdue et Retrouvee" ("Lost and Found").[2]

In 1948, Elder finished third in the 1100cc category race at the 18th Grand Prix des Frontières at Chimay, Belgium.[3] Later the same year, she finished eighth in the Coupes du Salon race.[4] In 1949, Elder competed in the 24 Hours of Le Mans car race in a Simca Huit, but did not finish.[1][5]
