Arthur Frederick Dimmock MBE D.Arts (1918-2007), was an English writer, journalist and historian. ==Early life== Arthur Dimmock was born to Eleanor Dimmock on 15 July 1918, in Whitley Bay, Northumberland. He became deaf after a bout of meningitis during early childhood. A doctor diagnosed Dimmock as a retard and recommended that he should be committed to a psychiatric hospital. Eleanor Dimmock learnt the manual alphabet to educate him at home instead. She had interpreted radio shows and his favourite football matches, which led Dimmock to becoming a voracious reader that subsequently helped him to acquire a command of English beyond his hearing peers aged seven. It had also allowed him to acquire a command of French and Latin. He never spoke English as he found it "irrelevant". He preferred finger-spelling as his means of communication.〔() The Scotsman: Obituary of A.F. Dimmock〕 In 1925, Dimmock enrolled at the Northern Counties School for the Deaf and Dumb in Newcastle. After he was offered a place to study fine arts at Durham University, he couldn't obtain funding and so, he became an apprentice cabinetmaker, specialising in the restoration of antique furniture, instead.〔
