François Pierre Philippe Bonlieu (21 March 1937 – 18 August 1973) was a French alpine skier.
Born at Juvincourt-et-Damary, Aisne, Bonlieu debuted for the French alpine skiing national team when he was 15 years old. From 1958 until 1959 he became a four times French Champion (twice in the giant slalom, once in the slalom and Alpine Combined). He was murdered at Croisette in Cannes after an argument.[1]
His sister Edith Bonlieu, also an alpine skier, was a member of the cult Order of the Solar Temple[2] and died in a mass suicide in December 1995.[3]
