William Donald Hamilton McCullough (15 August 1901 – 19 January 1978) was an Irish born British writer and broadcaster.
[1] McCullough first came to public notice in 1934 with Aces Made Easy – or Pons asinorum in a nutshell, which he wrote with illustrations by Fougasse.
This was written at a time when the introduction could say “According to statistics, there is in Great Britain one car to every 33 persons ...”, so somewhat dated now.
After the war, McCullough and Fougasse again collaborated on light-hearted pamphlets, but with the serious intent of promoting road safety, Fancy Meeting You and Many Happy Returns – and How to Enjoy them The official name of The Brains Trust was initially Any Questions?.
The role of question-master was later alternated with others, but McCullough remained a regular until the radio version closed in May 1949.
