Subject: [BBC-HISTORY] BBC staff questions from Germany
Christoph Hilgert, a German scholar completing his PhD thesis has asked me
these questions. Can anyone help?
- Joseph Trenaman, who after 1945 worked for a while as Further Education
Liasion Officer at BBC's Further Education Programmes and its "Younger
Generation Programmes"; he left the BBC 1959.
Can you find out the year of his birth? And is there a chance to get to
know, what time he exactly joined the BBC and what positions he assumed
there afterwards?
- Robert (Bob) Gunnell (1926/1927?-2014), who was producer/editor in BBC's
Talks Department and also was busy with the Younger Generation Programmes
after 1945; Do you know his exact birth year (1926/1927)? And is there a
chance to get to know, what time he exactly joined the BBC and what
positions he assumed there afterwards
- Is there any good biographical note about Jean (Wilhelma) Rowntree
(1905-2003), besides the Guardian's and Telegraph's respective obituary?
Relevant for my study are the late 1940s, 1950s, and early 1960s; I know
that since the 1930s she had been working in different editorial functions
for the Educational Programmes, assumed leading positions there, and in the
late 1950s finally became the Head of Further Education.
