DENNIS, Felix
Felix Dennis is a poet, a publisher and a planter of trees. The Sunday Times Rich List ranks him in the top 100 of Britain’s wealthiest individuals. He is the author of three best-selling books of verse: A Glass Half Full, Lone Wolf and When Jack Sued Jill: Nursery Rhymes for Modern Times. His poetry has been performed on two continents by the Royal Shakespeare Company and he has toured extensively reading poetry to large audiences in Britain and America. Dennis’s other interests include commissioning bronze sculpture, breeding rare pigs (and occasionally eating them), drinking French wine, collecting first edition books and avoiding business meetings. His greatest ambition is to complete the planting of a native broadleaf forest in the Heart of England. He has homes in Central London, Stratford-upon-Avon, Manhattan, Connecticut and the Caribbean island of Mustique. (Photo/text: "How to get rich", Ebury Press, 2007.)
