==Biography==
Born on May 14, 1890 in Plainfield, New Jersey, Farson was raised by his eccentric grandfather, the Civil War General James Negley. He was educated at Andover and read civil engineering at the University of Pennsylvania. He was expelled from this institution and emigrated to England. He went into journalism and travelled to Russia, being present in Petrograd the day the Bolshevik Revolution broke out. Farson went on to become one of the most renowned foreign correspondents of his day, interviewing Gandhi in India, witnessing Gandhi's arrest in Poona, witnessing bank-robber John Dillinger's naked body in the morgue just after he had been shot down by Hoover's men, and meeting Hitler, who described Farson's blond son, Daniel, as a "good Aryan boy".
He died on December 13, 1960 in London, England.〔("Negley Farson, Author, 70, Dies. Ex-Reporter in Britain for Chicago Daily News Wrote of World-Wide Adventures" ), ''The New York Times'', December 14, 1960. Accessed February 5, 2008.〕
