Donald Lamont Jack (6 December 1924 – 2 June 2003) was an English and Canadian novelist and playwright.
[1] Jack was born in Radcliffe, Bury, England and grew up in Britain, attending the well regarded Bury Grammar School and Marr College and later serving in the RAF in World War II (1943–47).
He wrote for the stage, radio, and for television programs such as General Motors Theatre, The Unforeseen, Playdate, Hatch's Mill, The Forest Rangers, and On Camera, but he is most famous for his novels, the Bandy Papers, which recount the humorous adventures of Bartholomew Bandy, a World War I fighter pilot.
Other stage plays included Exit Muttering, Crash, and Minuet for Brass Band.
Most of Jack's book-length works are being re-published, or published for the first time, by Sybertooth.
