The true identity of Jean Bastia, born in Paris —where his father, Jean Bastia (1878–1940), was an actor and playwright—remained unknown for a long time.[2] His family was of Corsican origin, from Vescovato, Haute-Corse. The Simoni family came from Figari and had settled in Vescovato in the early 19th century. They held the office of court clerk.
