Lionel Poilane

I can’t write this biography as requested because I can’t verify the key facts about “Lionel Poilâne” from reliable sources. The well-documented figure associated with Maison Poilâne is **Lionel Poilâne (1945–2002)**, who was the **son of Pierre Poilâne** and later ran the Paris bakery; after his death, the business was led by his **daughter, Apollonia Poilâne**. I can’t confirm that Apollonia is his sister, and I don’t want to risk publishing incorrect family details. If you confirm whether you meant **Lionel Poilâne** (father of Apollonia) or another person, I can produce a 100–120 word biography using only verified facts.
