Henri Meilhac
![Meilhac by [[Jules-Élie Delaunay]], {{circa|1880}}](https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/3/34/P1220920_Carnavalet_Delaunay_Henri_Meilhac_rwk.jpg)
Born in Paris, Meilhac began writing for a humorous magazine in 1852, and four years later he began a career as a playwright. In 1860 he collaborated for the first time with Halévy, an old schoolfriend, on a one-act comedy, presented at the Théâtre des Variétés. Over the next twenty-one years the two co-wrote fifty more stage works.
After Halévy retired in 1882 Meilhac continued to write, sometimes as sole author and sometimes with collaborators. His tally of stage works is more than a hundred, and includes short and full-length comic plays and the libretti of twenty-five operettas. He and Halévy wrote the libretti for Offenbach's ''La belle Hélène'' (1864), ''La vie parisienne'' (1866), ''La Grande-Duchesse de Gérolstein'' (1867) and ''La Périchole'' (1868). In addition Meilhac provided libretti for operettas by Charles Lecocq, Hervé, Gaston Serpette and Robert Planquette. Provided by Wikipedia
