Albert Bernard Hollowood (3 June 1910 – 28 March 1981) was an English writer, cartoonist and economist.
Born on 3 June 1910 at Burslem, Stoke-on-Trent, Staffordshire, Bernard Hollowood was educated at Hanley High School and St Paul's College, Cheltenham.
[citation needed] Though not a good draughtsman, he sold his first drawings to Chamber's Journal, Lilliput and Men Only in 1942.
He set very high standards, and would often require cartoonists to revise their submissions several times.
[citation needed] Under him, Punch's circulation continued at around 115,000 copies, but he never became as well known as Malcolm Muggeridge, his immediate predecessor as editor.
He was also a regular contributor of articles or cartoons to many other publications, including The Times, Geographical Magazine, Socialist Commentary, the Surrey Advertiser, News Chronicle, The Cricketer, London Opinion, The New Yorker, the Evening Standard, and the Daily and Sunday Telegraph.
Barnes would seem transcendent if they were not outweighed by his chapter on that great bowler which is a fine passage of cricket literature... this is a book of many and well-cut facets.
