Jean-Pierre Rives (born 31 December 1952) is a French champion rugby player and visual artist. "A cult figure in France," according to the ''BBC'', he came to epitomise the team's spirit and "ultra-committed, guts-and-glory style of play."〔( Jean-Pierre Rives ''BBC'' Official web site )〕〔 He won 59 caps for France – 34 of them as Captain of the French National Rugby team – and was inducted into the International Rugby Hall of Fame. After retiring from the sport, Rives concentrated entirely on his art. He is both a painter and a sculptor, and exhibiting regularly at prominent public venues all over the globe.〔〔 Rives was awarded the Order of the Legion of Honor and the National Order of Merit by the government of France.〔(Legion of Honor Award Cerremony )〕〔(Decree of the President of France. Légifrance Government of France Official web site )〕 ==Early life and career== Jean-Pierre Rives was born on 31 December 1952 in Saint-Simon, a suburb of Toulouse, in the Haute-Garonne department of southwestern France. He grew up with his brother Philippe in the family of Jo and Lydia Rives. Jean-Pierre started drawing and painting in primary school – a passion that would stay with him throughout his whole life. His father was a pilot and an avid tennis player, and he encouraged his son, who excelled in athletics at early age, to pursue tennis, but it was rugby that would become Jean-Pierre Rives' ultimate choice.〔(Jean-Pierre Rives Larousse encyclopedia official web site )〕〔Interview with Thierry Ardisson in "Tout le monde en parle" on "Paris Première" in May 2011.〕
