## Short biography

He was born Ernest-Antoine-Edmond-Édouard Déaddé in Paris. An employee at the Interior ministry, he became known as vaudevilliste under the pen name Saint-Yves and published numerous articles in the Revue et gazette musicale under the pseudonym D.A.D.
His numerous plays were presented on the most important Parisian stages of his time, including the Théâtre du Panthéon, the Théâtre des Variétés, the Théâtre du Palais-Royal, the Théâtre de l'Ambigu, the Théâtre des Folies-Dramatiques, and the Théâtre de la Gaîté. Several collaborative projects were discussed with Honoré de Balzac but none were realized.
He was the managing director of the Théâtre de la Porte-Saint-Antoine from 31 December 1839 to January 1841.
