LOCAL CAMDEN HEROES

PEOPLE WHO HAVE WORKED OR RESIDED
OR  NOW PERMENANTLY RESIDE (er, are buried)
IN THE BOROUGH OF CAMDEN

Please note: People can be heroic in one, or many areas of their lives.
All these people have been suggested as somebody's hero
and links are provided to the Postcard Poems written in their honour.


This list is incomplete and extremely subjective. It is an on-going list,
intended to amuse, educate, and provide inspiration for the list-makers.
Many of the Heroes have lived in several places in their lives.
We do not list the current address of a Living Hero.

If anyone in this list is your Camden hero,
please write a postcard poem for them.

AN ON-GOING LIST FOR INSPIRATION,
INCLUDING:
Ali Mohammed Abbas
Lived at 33 Tavistock Square 1945 - 79
The son of a poor Bengali farmer, educated and brought up by his wealthier maternal grandfather. He came to London to study law, just as the Second World War was ending. In London he edited newspapers ('Our Home' and the 'Voice of Pakistan') lobbied and organised meetings. He was the leader of the Muslim League in London, and appeared in the House of Lords as part of a successful legal career - becoming the first Asian barrister to appear in all the levels of court in England. On 14th August 1947, with the creation of Pakistan., he named his flat at 33 Tavistock Square 'Pakistan House' - the unofficial Pakistani Embassy until an official one was built. With the help of local councils, Abbas set up 28 schools all over England which enabled over 30,000 Pakistanis to speak, read and write in English.

THOMAS, Dylan (1914-1953), Poet, lived here. 54 Delancey Street, NW1 7RW FURTHER READING: My Father's Places : A Portrait of Childhood by Dylan Thomas' daughter : Aeronwy Thomas Published by Constable and Robinson [review by Fiona Green, Camden New Journal 17.09.2009] "I'd like you to come over : I've been told my illness is now in the terminal stages" Aeron said with characteristic, quiet stoicism. Nine years earlier, Llewelyn, her older brother, had broken the same news to me,  in much the same way. "I hope at least to see Hannah's (her daughter) baby born", she continued, "and perhaps even be here for the launch of my book." Aeronwy's memoir,"In My Father's Places" was started in the 1990's as a way of coming to terms with the early loss of her father, the poet, Dylan Thomas.
