Biography
John Ebdon (1923–2005) was a British author, broadcaster, Graecophile and director of the London Planetarium. He was born on 22 December 1923, educated at Blundell's School and died in March 2005. On his death, obituaries appeared in the Times, Independent, Guardian and Telegraph newspapers and on the BBC.
Ebdon presented Archive Feature on the Home Service and Radio 4 from 1961 to 1987. He also presented the archive-based Nonsense at Noon on the Home Service, 1965-66. "His facetious patrician tones every third Monday morning, his sense of the absurd, his ear for a word mistakenly taken out of context, his famous cat Perseus, delighted much of middle England as much as it infuriated a small minority."--Glyn Worsnip.
