Biography
In a career spanning nearly 40 years at HEC Montréal (1956–1995), he allied teaching, research and administrative duties. His international outlook allowed him to make a name for himself on the world stage in accounting, and he served as Director of the Department of Accounting Studies (1961–1984) and held the Chair of Accountancy (1985–1994), the first of its kind in Quebec. A prolific author, he also published Les Notions de comptabilité générale in 1957.
