Bryan Keith-Lucas

Bryan Keith-Lucas CBE (born Lucas; 1 August 1912, Fen Ditton, Cambridgeshire − 1996, Canterbury, Kent) was an English political scientist.

The son of Alys Hubbard Lucas and Keith Lucas, professor of physiology at Cambridge and an instrument designer, Keith-Lucas was born at Fen Ditton and educated at Gresham's School, Holt, and Pembroke College, Cambridge, where he read history and economics.

While at Cambridge, he took a great interest in government, especially social policy and the problems of housing, thanks to two priests, Father Jellicoe and Father Scott, who had begun the St Pancras Housing Society.

[2] Bryan Keith-Lucas joined the town clerk's department at Kensington, London, and qualified as a solicitor in 1937.

He retired in 1977 and taught politics part-time at King's School, Canterbury.
