Wikipedia, May 1, 2015 (Thomas Michael Bond, OBE (born 13 January 1926) is an English author, most celebrated for his Paddington Bear series of books. Bond was born in Newbury and raised in Reading, Berkshire. Bond began writing in 1945 whilst stationed with the army in Cairo and sold his first short story to the magazine London Opinion. In 1958, after producing a number of plays and short stories and while working as a BBC television cameraman (where he worked on Blue Peter for a time), his first book, A Bear Called Paddington, was published. Bond is married with two adult children and lives in London)
