Léo Marjane (born Thérèse Gérard, 27 August 1912 in Boulogne-sur-Mer, Pas-de-Calais) is a French singer who reached the peak of her popularity in the late 1930s and early 1940s, before her career went into sharp decline after the end of World War II. Marjane began her career in the early 1930s singing in cabarets in Paris. She was noticed for her warm contralto voice and the clarity of her diction, and in 1936 was signed to a contract with the Pathé-Marconi label. Her early recordings a mixture of original songs and standards of the era such as "Begin the Beguine" and "Night and Day" were well-received and popular. The peak of Marjane's career came in the early 1940s, when she was regarded as one of France's biggest female singing stars. In 1941 she recorded her signature song, the Charles Trenet-penned "Seule ce soir" ("Alone Tonight"), which captured the feelings of the many who were experiencing wartime separation and became one of the best-loved songs of its time.
