Gerald Gardiner, Baron Gardiner
Gerald Austin Gardiner, Baron Gardiner, CH, QC, PC (30 May 1900 – 7 January 1990), was a British Labour politician, who served as Lord High Chancellor of Great Britain from 1964 to 1970 and during that time he introduced into British law as many reforms as any Lord Chancellor had done before or since. In that position he embarked on a great programme of reform, most importantly setting up the Law Commission in 1965.〔ODNB article by Norman S. Marsh, 'Gardiner, Gerald Austin, Baron Gardiner (1900–1990)', rev., Oxford Dictionary of National Biography, Oxford University Press, 2004 (ODNB Online ), accessed 27 March 2008.〕
==Early life and education==
His father was Robert Septimus Gardiner (died 16 November 1939)〔''The Times'', Saturday, Nov 18, 1939; pg. 1; Issue 48466; col A: Death notices〕 and his mother was Alice von Ziegesar (died 31 January 1953 〔''The Times'', Thursday, Feb 05, 1953; pg. 8; Issue 52538; col E: Death Notice of Lady Gardiner.〕), daughter of Count von Ziegesar and granddaughter of Dionysius Lardner.〔The Times, Monday, Nov 20, 1939; pg. 8; Issue 48467; col D ''Sir Robert Gardiner'' Obituary. (Dionysus Lardner archive with marriage certificate of Susan Lardner and Baron von Ziegesar )〕 Gardiner was born in Chelsea, London〔(Births England and Wales 1837–1915 )〕 and attended Harrow School. When his father visited him at Harrow he noticed a copy of ''the Nation'', later incorporated into the ''New Statesman'', lying around and yelled that no other son of his would attend a school where such publications were openly displayed. He was as good as his word, and Gerald's two brothers were sent to Eton.
When Gardiner was at Magdalen College, Oxford in the 1920s, he published a pamphlet on pink paper which resulted in his being sent down. A woman undergraduate had suffered the same fate a few days previously for climbing into a men's college after a dance. Gardiner, characteristically, rushed to her defence and the Vice-Chancellor, Lewis Richard Farnell, notoriously out of touch with the post-war generation, asked Gardiner to leave at the intolerable hour of six in the morning; any later hour, Farnell knew, would have meant a sympathetic funeral procession several hundred strong. The girl to whose defence Gardiner had so gallantly flown was later a film critic, Dilys Powell.
While occupying the position of Chancellor of the Open University, he took a degree in the Social Sciences, at the age of 76.
