William Graham Stanton
William Graham "Bill" Stanton (18 August 1917 - 6 December 1999) was a British author and radio playwright.
== Early life ==
William Graham Stanton was born in Brightside, Sheffield, the seventh of eight children of John Stanton (a blacksmith) and his wife. His upbringing was in a working class Methodist tradition. His later writings about his experiences as a child described an upbringing rich in love, event and interest.
Stanton's brothers, George and Arthur, were sent to Sheffield University. The depression of the 1930s denied Stanton's family the means to help him through university, and instead Stanton had to settle for sponsorship from the Sheffield Education Committee to train to be a teacher. Shortly after he qualified in 1939, war was declared and Stanton volunteered for the Army. During the war, he met and married Dorothy Walton from Millhouses,〔 and after the war they ran a private school together. Starting in 1954, he worked for the Vickers-owned English Steel Corporation as a sales representative. When he retired in 1980, it was as Area Marketing Manager for British Steel in Leeds.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title= Bill Stanton radio drama, radio plays )〕 Throughout his life, Stanton wrote both prose and verse, most of which was unpublished.
