Hide Profile

Alexandre Maurice Blanc de Lanautte, Comte d'Hauterive, was born in Aspres-les-Corps (Haute-Alpes), France, on April 14, 1754. Following his education in Grenoble, he accompanied Comte de Coiseul-Goufier on a diplomatic mission to Constantinople (now Istanbul) in 1784. Hauterive lost his fortune during the French Revolution and moved to the United States, where he served as French consul in 1792. Though he later returned to France, he maintained an interest in international affairs, and in 1798 he was appointed head of the division of the Minister of Foreign Affairs. In 1805, he became the counselor of the states. Hauterive died in Paris on July 27, 1830.
