About Peter Marshall

I was born Peter Hugh Marshall on 23 August 1946 in Bognor Regis, England, a stone’s throw from the sea. My father Bill was an ace Spitfire fighter pilot and later a successful race-horse trainer but I was brought up with my mother Vera and brother Michael in the home of my grandparents who had owned hotels.

I was sent to become a boarder at Steyning Grammar School in the Sussex Downs. I then sailed around the world as a purser cadet in the P & O-Orient Shipping Company before teaching English in Senegal, West Africa. Returning to Britain, I took an external BA degree in English, French and Spanish from the University of London and a MA and D. Phil in the History of Ideas from the University of Sussex.

From 1971-1990, I taught part-time philosophy and the literature of ideas at Chelsea School of Art, Goldsmiths College of the University of London, the Extra-Mural Departments of the University of London and the University of Wales as well as the Open University.
