Jean-Paul Charles Aymard Sartre (21 June 1905 – 15 April 1980) was one of the key figures in the philosophy of existentialism (and phenomenology), a French playwright, novelist, screenwriter, political activist, biographer, and literary critic, as well as a leading figure in 20th-century French philosophy and Marxism.

Sartre held an open relationship with prominent feminist and fellow existentialist philosopher Simone de Beauvoir. They visited Armenia together in 1963: https://www.reddit.com/r/armenia/comments/z4782m/not_too_many_people_know_this_but_jeanpaul_sartre/
