Alan Bradley (writer)
Alan Bradley (born 1938) is a Canadian mystery writer known for his ''Flavia de Luce'' series, which began with the acclaimed ''The Sweetness at the Bottom of the Pie''.
==Early life and engineering career==
Bradley was born in 1938 in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. Alongside his two older sisters, Bradley was raised roughly 100 kilometres east of Toronto in the small town of Cobourg, Ontario. His mother brought up the children alone after Bradley's father left the family when Bradley was a toddler.〔Morrow, Fiona, "At 70, a novelist is born", ''The Globe and Mail'', February 14, 2009, pg. R1. Factiva (subscription required). Retrieved 24 July 2012.〕 Bradley learned to read at an early age, partly because he was a sickly child who spent a lot of time in bed.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Alan Bradley Interview )〕 However, Bradley confesses to having been a "very bad student",〔 particularly in high school,〔 spending his free time reading in the local cemetery because he felt he didn't fit in.
After completing his education, Bradley worked in Cobourg as a radio and television engineer, designing and building electronic systems. He then worked briefly for Ryerson Polytechnical Institute in Toronto (now Ryerson University), before moving to Saskatoon to take a job at the University of Saskatchewan in 1969. There he helped develop a broadcasting studio, where he worked as Director of Television Engineering for 25 years. He took an early retirement from the university in 1994 in order to become a full-time writer.〔
