Sir David English

Article Abstract:

Journalist David English began his career at local newspapers. He worked at the Daily Mirror between 1951 and 1953, but did not really make an impact until he moved to the Daily Sketch, where he became American correspondent of sister newspaper the Sunday Dispatch. He returned to the UK in 1964 to become foreign editor of the Daily Express, but moved to the Daily Mail in 1971. He transformed this newspaper, boosting its circulation to more than that of the Daily Express.
