Neil Hornick was born in London in 1939. He studied Psychology at University College London and, after a period travelling abroad, earned a post-grad Certificate in Drama with Distinction at Bristol University in 1965-6. He was artistic director of The Phantom Captain performance company for 36 years, and from the mid-1980s he also ran a literary consultancy, Reading & Righting, under his pen-name, Robert Lambolle. Still resident in London, he is married and has a son and daughter. He believed he was retired until Paul Cronin dusted him off and put him to work on resurrecting his once-suppressed book about film director Stanley Kubrick. His complete professional and personal archives were acquired by the British Library in 2022. See less
