Mark dreamt of a life on stage when at six years old he took on the role of Prince Charming in a school production of Cinderella.

However, after marrying in his early twenties and starting a family he found he needed more regular employment. And so after being given the opportunity to present a radio programme for his local BBC station he decided this might be a better way of paying the mortgage for the next few years. Forty five years on and having managed radio stations to board level in both the commercial sector and with the BBC, Mark is still broadcasting. He has also realised his early acting ambitions in undertaking several professional roles along the way. His credits include Pantomime, TV favourites ‘Brookside’ and ‘Poldark,’ and the cult British film ‘Human Traffic.’

Mark is the author of three novels, ‘A Corner Of My Heart‘, ‘The Family Tree‘ and his new novel ‘An Oath Betrayed‘.

Mark has also written several award winning plays and Pantomimes which are available through his publisher, Lazy Bee Scripts. Mark’s scripts are regularly produced and performed both at home and abroad.
