Known to friends and co-workers as "Tibby," British screenwriter T.E.B. Clarke briefly pursued careers in advertising and journalism after graduating from Cambridge. Clarke also worked as a London police offer, a wide-ranging experience that would ever after serve as grist for his creative mill. Though he authored fifteen novels, a stage play, and several dramatic screenplays, Clarke is best remembered for his droll, lightly satirical scripts for the Ealing Studios in the 1940s and 1950s. He was honored with an Academy Award for The Lavender Hill Mob, which hopefully compensated for the mere 1500 pounds (approximately $4000) that Ealing paid him. In 1974, T.E.B. Clarke penned his autobiography, This is Where I Came In.
