==Biography==
Born on January 17, 1895 in the lower Casbah of Algiers. Her mother Louna Aboucaya was the maternal aunt of impresario [[Edmond Yafil|Edmond Nathan Yafil]]. Similar to so many artists of her times, she practiced her musical skills at family events, where she devoted herself to singing and the [[darbuka]]. Sometime after [[World War I]], she joined El Moutribia, the orchestra and theater troupe of her famous cousin Yafil. Her stage debut would seem to have occurred in 1925 at the Casino d’Alger. Over the next fifteen years, she sustained a busy career with El Moutribia, acting and touring alongside her comic partner Rachid Ksentini. Together, the Jewish-Muslim duo became center stage. Many of those acts were then recorded to disc. Soussan, of course, was also a talented solo artist, recording an array of genres, classical and popular, first with [[Gramophone]] and then with [[Polyphon]]. All of this earned her early membership in the [[Société des auteurs, compositeurs et éditeurs de musique|Société des auteurs, compositeurs et éditeurs de musique (SACEM)]].<ref>[https://gharamophone.com/tag/algeria/]</ref>
She left Algeria in 1959 and embarked on a business career in the southern France, before Algeria gained independence and after a deterioration process in the situation of artists there and Jewish artists in particular following [[World War II]]. She died in 1977, and was buried in the Jewish cemetery in Marseille. <ref>[https://ift.tt/33Q6vfp>
