Translation of ’for a while'

Frank C.C1Kwiziq Q&A regular contributor

In the sentence, "A few years back, I read a book written by a New Yorker who had lived in Paris for a while, ...", I was wondering if ’pendant un moment’ would be an appropriate translation of 'for a while'. I found this in Wordreference, used it, and it was marked wrong.
