Jane Birkin’s Daughter, Kate Barry, Dies from Four-Story Fall in Paris

Photographer Kate Barry, whose work appeared in British Vogue, Paris Match and Elle, was found dead outside her Paris apartment after suffering a four-story fall. Police sources tell The Telegraph that antidepressants were found in Barry’s apartment and that she was alone at the time of her death. 

Barry is the daughter of Jane Birkin and John Barry (who composed soundtracks for eleven James Bond films). In 1967, the year of their daughter’s birth, the couple split. Until she turned 13, Barry was raised by Birkin and Serge Gainsbourg. Her family included half-sisters Charlotte Gainsbourg and Lou Doillon

According to The Guardian, Barry leaves behind a 26-year-old son.
