Francis John Heathorn Huxley (28 August 1923 – 29 October 2016)[1] was a British zoologist, anthropologist and author.
At age two, he entered a preparatory school at Byron House, but soon developed severe illnesses, including Bell’s palsy, whooping cough and eye infections.
His ship was in preparation for invasion of Japan when the first atomic bombs devastated Hiroshima and Nagasaki in August 1945 that led to the end of the war.
At the same time he joined the Royal Anthropological Institute of Great Britain and Ireland,[5] which his great-grandfather, Thomas Huxley co-founded in 1871.
He returned to Brazil in 1953 for a study funded by the Brazilian government, and lived among the Ka'apor people alone from February to July.
