Serge Bouchard (July 27, 1947 – May 11, 2021) was a Canadian anthropologist and writer from Quebec,[1] who won the Governor General's Award for French-language non-fiction at the 2017 Governor General's Awards for his book Les Yeux tristes de mon camion.[2]
He was awarded the Prix Gérard-Morisset in 2015.[3]
Early life and education
Bouchard was born on July 27, 1947, in Montreal, Quebec, Canada.[4] He obtained a Master's degree from Université Laval in 1973, with a dissertation focused on hunters of the Innu people in Labrador. He then went on to study for a doctorate at McGill University, which he completed in 1980, his research and thesis focusing on the lives and culture of long-distance truck drivers in north-east Quebec.[5][6] His interest in this subject arose as a result of his father and grandfather having been truck drivers, and Bouchard spent time travelling around the province with drivers, as part of his research.[5]
Death
In April 2021, while still working as a host of the show C'est fou... with Jean-Philippe Pleau on the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation's Ici Radio-Canada Première network, Bouchard announced on Facebook that he was taking some time off due to "little health issues". He posted again, on 9 May, saying "I slowly regain my mammoth strength, and I’m anxious to be back in front of a microphone and the listeners".[7]
He died on 11 May 2021, at the age of 73.[7]
