John Tusa's memoir of a six-decade distinguished career in the arts and cultural leadership - including the BBC and the Barbican

Format: Paperback / softback
Length: 400 pages
Publication date: 07 February 2019
Publisher: Orion Publishing Co


John Tusa is a renowned journalist, broadcaster, and arts organization leader, best known for his tenure at the BBC, particularly for his role in creating Newsnight. His memoir is filled with candid insights. Tusa's account of two years of internal conflict at the top of the BBC under Chairman Dukey Hussey will be a significant contribution to BBC history. His recollections of a humorous and petty-minded period as head of a Cambridge college will be regarded as a case study of the quirks of academic life, while his leadership of the rejected and maligned Barbican Centre led to its transformation into the prominent cultural hub it is today.
