Under his real name, Bruce Montgomery (1921-1978) wrote concert music and the scores for almost 50 feature films, including some of the most enduring British comedies of the twentieth century. In this first biography of Montgomery, David Whittle draws on interviews with people who knew the writer and composer. These interviews, together with in-depth research, provide great insight into the development of Montgomery as a crime fiction writer and as a composer in the ever-demanding world of films.
David Whittle was Head Chorister at Peterborough Cathedral and studied Music at the University of Nottingham where he completed a PhD on Bruce Montgomery. He has contributed to publications such as The New Dictionary of National Biography, The Oxford Companion to Crime and Mystery Writing and Irish Musical Studies. He is Director of Music at Leicester Grammar School, UK.
