Author Description
Karl Fergus Connor Miller FRSL was a Scottiish literary editor, critic and writer. He was educated at the Royal High School of Edinburgh and Downing College, Cambridge, where he studied English; he was a Cambridge Apostle. He became literary editor of
The Spectator
and the
New Statesman
. Miller resigned from the latter over a disagreement with the magazine's editor
Paul Johnson
, over the extent to which the literary pages treated difficult subjects and also Johnson's disapproval of The Beatles and their fans.
He was then editor of
The Listener
(1967–73) and subsequently of the
London Review of Books
, which he founded, from 1979 to 1992. He was also Lord Northcliffe Professor of Modern English Literature and head of the English Department at University College London from 1974 to 1992.
