Kelland-Espinosa was born in London in 1906[1] to parents Edouard Espinosa and Eve Louise Kelland.
Kelland-Espinosa experienced success as both a performer and a teacher before devoting his career to developing the BBO and raising the standard of teaching throughout the country and abroad.
After his father's death in 1950, Edward took over the administration of the BBO[2] and was elected chairman.
Alongside his sister, Yvette Espinosa, he ran the organization until his retirement in January 1987.
