Hugh Greene
Sir Hugh Carleton Greene KCMG, OBE (15 November 1910 – 19 February 1987) was a British journalist and television executive. He was Director-General of the BBC from 1960 to 1969, and is generally credited with modernising an organisation that had fallen behind in the wake of the launch of ITV in 1955. He was the brother of Graham Greene, the English novelist.
==Early life and work==
Greene was born in Berkhamsted, Hertfordshire,〔(Births England and Wales 1837-1983 )〕 one of the four sons and two daughters of Charles Henry Greene, Headmaster of Berkhamsted School. His brothers were novelist Graham Greene, Raymond Greene, a physician and Everest mountaineer, and Herbert Greene, the eldest, a relatively little-known poet recruited in 1933 as a Japanese spy and perhaps best remembered for leading a march at Broadcasting House in protest against one of his brother's actions as Director-General.
After education at Berkhamsted School and Merton College, Oxford, Greene came to prominence as a journalist in 1934 when he became the chief correspondent in Berlin for ''The Daily Telegraph''. He and several other British journalists, including his secretary in Berlin, Barbara Henman, were expelled from Berlin in reprisal for the removal of a Nazi propagandist in England. Greene managed to report from Warsaw on the opening events of the Second World War and continued as a correspondent for a short time. He served briefly with the Royal Air Force in 1940 as an interrogator, but was encouraged by the military authorities to join the BBC later that year.
