David Pax Tennant (22 May 1902 – 8 April 1968)[1] was a British aristocrat socialite, and the founder of the Gargoyle Club in London's Soho.

[2] Tennant founded the Gargoyle as a private members' club on the upper floors of 69 Dean Street, Soho, London in 1925.

[3] There were lavish interiors, paintings by Henri Matisse, and regular patrons included Virginia Woolf, Duncan Grant, Nancy Cunard, Fred Astaire and later Francis Bacon and Lucian Freud.

[5] One of the parties he organized for the group was in the Burlington Galleries and had a Mozart theme and required the guests to dress in eighteenth-century costume.

Her partners were: the anthropologist Julian Pitt-Rivers; Euan Douglas Graham, grandson of the 5th Duke of Montrose; and Sir Anthony Rumbold, 10th Baronet.
