Professor John Joseph Scarisbrick MBE FRHistS (often shortened to J.J. Scarisbrick) is a British historian who taught at the University of Warwick. He is also noted as the co-founder with his wife Nuala Scarisbrick of Life, a British pro-life charity founded in 1970.[1]

Born in 1928 in London, Scarisbrick was educated at The John Fisher School and later Christ's College, Cambridge, after spending two years in the Royal Air Force.[1] He specialises in Tudor history and his most critically acclaimed work is Henry VIII, first published in 1968.[2][3]

He received an MBE in 2015 for services to vulnerable people as founder of Zoe's Place, a hospice for children in Coventry.[4]
