Overview: John Wyndham Parkes Lucas Beynon Harris was born on July 10, 1903 in the village of Dorridge near Knowle, Warwickshire (now West Midlands), England, the son of Gertrude Parkes, the daughter of the Birmingham ironmaster John Israel Parkes, and her second husband, George Beynon Harris, a barrister.
After leaving school, Wyndham tried several careers, including farming, law, commercial art and advertising; however, he mostly relied on an allowance from his family to survive. He eventually turned to writing for money in 1925 and by 1931 he was selling short stories and serial fiction to American science fiction magazines. His debut short story, “Worlds to Barter”, appeared under the pen name John B. Harris in 1931. Three novels as by Beynon were published in 1935/36, two of them works of science fiction, the other a detective story.
During the Second World War, Wyndham first served as a censor in the Ministry of Information. He drew on his experiences as a firewatcher during the London Blitz and as a member of the Home Guard in The Day of the Triffids. The book had an enormous success and established Wyndham as an important exponent of science fiction.
John Wyndham died in his sleep on March 11, 1969 in Petersfield, Hampshire, U.K.
