Biography

As a journalist, Perazzi worked for the daily newspaper Ouest-France as a Brittany correspondent from 1970 to 1995.[2] Notably, he covered the sinking of the Amoco Cadiz and the failed construction of the Plogoff nuclear power plant. In addition to his journalistic career, he wrote several books on Brittany and kept a "campaign journal" on the website of Agence Bretagne Presse [fr].

Perazzi was also interested in practicing alternative methods of gardening.[3] In September 2014, he won five awards in the "Jardiner Autrement" contest, organized by the National Horticultural Society of France.[4] The contest encouraged gardening techniques without the use of pesticides.

Jean-Charles Perazzi died in Plomelin on 9 February 2021 at the age of 84.[5]
