He left school at 14 and worked as a colliery labourer in Broughton, before signing up with the Notts & Derby Regiment, becoming a Second Lieutenant in the Warwick Regiment during the First World War. After the war he moved to London and became an animator, working on the Bonzo series, based on George E. Studdy's comic strips. His editors remember him as an uncommunicative man who would hand over his work with barely a word. He was a fan of bullfighting, and took a great deal of footage on a 35mm film camera. He died in Richmond upon Thames in early 1972, aged 75.
