Paul Jennings (British author)
Paul Francis Jennings (20 June 1918 – 26 December 1989) was a British humourist. He mostly wrote short articles; his most famous collection is ''The Jenguin Pennings'', published in 1963 by Penguin Books (hence the Spoonerism of the title).
Jennings lived for much of his life in East Bergholt, Suffolk, England, UK, with his wife, Celia, and their six children.
==Career==
Jennings began his career serving in the Royal Signals during the Second World War. His first publication was "Moses was a Sanitary Officer" in the April 1943 edition of ''Lilliput'' magazine. Freelance work for ''Punch'' and ''The Spectator'' soon followed. Leaving the army with the rank of Lieutenant, he briefly worked as a scriptwriter for the Central Office of Information and then spent two years as an advertising copywriter; throughout this period his freelance work continued to be published.
In 1949 he joined ''The Observer'', contributing a fortnightly column entitled "Oddly Enough" until 1966. After leaving ''The Observer'', he continued to write until his death, mainly seeing print in ''Punch'', ''The Times'' and the ''Telegraph magazine.''
