He was the literary editor of the Sunday Express for 23 years, from 1969 to 1992.
Lord was born in Southern Rhodesia (now Zimbabwe ), raised in Mozambique , educated at Falcon College , Zimbabwe [1] and took an honours degree in History at Churchill College, Cambridge , where he edited the university newspaper Varsity .
After working briefly for the Cambridge Evening News , in 1965 he joined the Sunday Express in London as a reporter and feature writer, where he spent 23 years as Literary Editor, wrote a weekly column about books and interviewed almost every major English language author of the 1960s to 1990s, including Graham Greene , Dame Muriel Spark and Ruth Rendell .
From 1982 to 1988 he was vice-chairman of Newbury Mencap , from 1985-87 he represented the Lambourn Valley as a Conservative councillor on Newbury District Council, and in 1987 he launched the £20,000 Sunday Express Book of the Year Award. After leaving the Sunday Express in 1992 to become a full-time author, he wrote regularly for The Daily Telegraph , The Times and the Daily Mail . From 1994 to 1996, he edited the short story magazine Raconteur .[citation needed ]
He also published a memoir of the people he met during his forty years in Fleet Street, Lord's Ladies and Gentlemen: 100 Legends of the 20th Century , which includes an unflattering profile of his former editor at the Sunday Express , Sir John Junor .[2] In addition, his other books include an autobiographical portrait of Mozambique and Zimbabwe , nine novels, and a collection of short stories, essays and journalism, Lord of the Files .
