Ian Fleming
Ian Fleming was an intelligence officer, journalist and creator of the fictional British Secret service agent James Bond. Fleming was born in Green Street in London, on May 28, 1908. Beginning in 1939, he served as a liaison between the Navy and the other secret services, where he was privy to the highest levels of intelligence and became known for his creativity in planning operations, work that inspired his later novels. After the war, Fleming became a journalist and in 1953 published his first James Bond novel, Casino Royale. It was a success and Fleming wrote a new book each year until his untimely death on August 12, 1964, in Canterbury.
