Daniel James Negley Farson
Daniel James Negley Farson (8 January 1927 – 27 November 1997) was a British writer and broadcaster, strongly identified with the early days of commercial television in the UK, when his sharp, investigative style contrasted with the BBC's more deferential culture. Farson was a prolific biographer and autobiographer, chronicling the bohemian life of Soho and his own experiences of running a music-hall pub on east London's Isle of Dogs. His memoirs were titled ''Never a Normal Man''. Early life Farson was born in Kensington, west London, the son of an American journalist, Negley Farson, and his British wife. His childhood was mostly divided between Britain and North America. He visited Germany with his father while Negley was reporting on the Nazi regime, and was patted on the head by Adolf Hitler, who described him as a "good Aryan boy". Farson briefly attended the British public school Wellington College (Berkshire), Wellington College, whose militaristic regime was not to hi ...

Negley Farson
James Scott Negley Farson (May 14, 1890 – December 13, 1960) was an American author and adventurer. A renowned fisherman, Farson wrote one of the classics of fishing literature, ''Going Fishing''. The story of his life is told in his two volumes of autobiography: ''The Way Of a Transgressor'' and ''A Mirror for Narcissus''. Birth and Childhood Born on May 14, 1890 in Plainfield, New Jersey at his maternal grandparents' residence, Farson was the son of Enoch S. Farson (1858-1928) and Grace Negley Farson (1871-1950). He had a younger brother, Enoch (b. 1892). Farson was raised in his early years by his maternal grandfather, the notorious and eccentric American Civil War veteran General James Negley, of whom it was written that he ‘made other men look like mongrel dogs.’ James Negley added Negley to Farson's name, apparently to make him his heir. When James Negley died, his house was repossessed because there was no money to cover his debts. Farson was educated at Andover ...

The largest of the fortifications erected was Fort Negley, a star-shaped limestone block structure atop St. Cloud Hill, south of the city.
