    Len Deighton

    Deighton was born in Marylebone, London, in 1929. His father was a chauffeur and mechanic, and his mother was a part-time cook.After leaving school, Deighton worked as a railway clerk before performing his National Service, which he spent as a photographer for the Royal Air Forces Special Investigation Branch. After discharge from the RAF, he studied at St Martins School of Art in London in 1949, and in 1952 won a scholarship to the Royal College of Art, graduating in 1955.

    Deighton left England in 1969. He briefly resided in Blackrock, County Louth in Ireland. He has not returned to England apart from some personal visits and very few media appearances, his last one since 1985 being a 2006 inter
