Short Biography of the author, Richard Adams
Richard George Adams is an English novelist born May
9th, 1920 in Newbury, Berkshire, United Kingdom. In
1938, he attended Worcester College, Oxford to read
Modern History, but in 1940, he was called to serve in the
British Army, where he was sent to India and the Middle
East. After his return from the war, he continued his studies
earning a Bachelor of Arts (1948) and a Master of Arts
(1953). His most famous and internationally acclaimed work
is the novel Watership Down, which he finally published
with great difficulty in 1972. He sold over a million copies
and to date sold over 50 million copies worldwide. The
novel won the Carnegie Medal and the Guardian Award for
Children’s fiction in 1972. In 1975, he was awarded a Fellow
of the Royal Society of Literature. He is also known for his
time working as the president of RSPCA (Royal Society for
the Protection of Cruelty to Animals) in 1982 and for his
other work, like Shardik in 1974. Today, he lives with his
wife Elizabeth in Whitchurch, Hampshire. He has two
daughters, Rosamond and Julie, to whom the original tales
of Watership Down were told.
