André Jacquemin was born in Epinal, France in 1904. While attending art school in Paris he studied under Charles Walter, where he learnt the techniques of etching and practiced by copying the most famous artists and visited all the museums to learn more about the masterpieces of past and present. In 1925, he underwent military service at Fort de Domont outside Paris together with Louis-Joseph Soulas and Edouard Mac-Avoy. Four years later, with a few other up-and-coming artists including Yves Alix, Amédée de la Patellière and Jacques Villon, André Jacquemin founded "la jeune Gravure Contemporaine", a society of Printmakers.
In 1930, he simultaneously received the Foundation Florence Blumenthal prize and an allowance to go on a study trip from Spain to Morocco for 14 months. Back from Morocco, his career developed very rapidly. At the beginning of 1932, he exhibited his work at the Simonson gallery. It was a success: he sold everything he had done in Morocco and Spain. The same year, he was elected as a fellow of the French Society of Painter-Etchers/Engravers (Peintres Graveurs Français). In 1936, he was awarded the national arts prize, given for the first time to an etcher. The following year he along with Jacques Villon, Marcel Gromaire 1937 Venice Biennale to represent French gravure. Jacquemin and his wife, Andrée Poncelet, also an artist, set up in Vaudeville in a 17th century manor house during the war.
In 1938, he started a career as an Illustrator. The Society of the Franco-Swiss bibliophiles commissioned André Jacquemin to illustrate Maurice Barres' chef d'oeuvre "The Inspired hill" which was published in 1942. In total, 84 original plates using the etching technique that took him 2 years to achieve. Due to this work, he became a sought after illustrator and illustrated a total of thirty one books written by the most famous contemporary writers of his time.
