In 2001, Tom-Tom and Nana received the Prix spécial du public jeunesse at the Le Festival de la bande dessinée de Darnétal. In 2002, she was awarded the Grand prix de l'Humour Tendre at the Salon international du dessin de presse et d'humour de Saint-Just-le-Martel [fr] for Radio casserole et les premiers de la casse.[6]

She died on 19 November 2024, aged 83.[8][4]
