We are sad to record the death of Brenda Maddox, one of our most distinguished biographers, who served on our Committee for a number of years. She was particularly noted for her biographies of James Joyce’s wife Nora, which won a clutch of awards and was adapted into a film, and that of D.H. Lawrence, entitled The Married Man, which won the Whitbread. She also wrote an acclaimed life of Rosalind Franklin, The Dark Lady of DNA.She will be missed.
