Biography
Joyce Sherman was born on October 20, 1941, in Brooklyn, New York, to a Jewish family that emigrated from Russia in 1914. In an interview with Le Monde in 1990, she humorously stated that her childhood upbringing was "exactly" like the Woody Allen film Radio Days. Her father, a Menshevik, fought in the International Brigades during the Spanish Civil War.
Buñuel was married to director Juan Luis Buñuel, the son of Luis Buñuel. The couple lived in Madrid and Mexico City, before moving to Paris in the early 1960s. The couple divorced after she made her first film, La Jument vapeur, in 1976. She had several children from this marriage, including Diego Buñuel.
