Historia biográfica
Matriculated at Clare, 1929. During his time at Clare (1929-1932) he was a member of the Music Society and he kept copies of all the programmes of concerts in which he played. He also kept copies of programmes of various other music concerts in Cambridge that he attended and it is these programmes that were bound together into the volume in this series.
Following his War service he took an LLB at Cornell University but later settled in Los Angeles working in investment banking. In 1975, he and his wife returned to Cambridge where he once again became actively involved in music-making.
