Patrick Campbell, Irish author, journalist, and broadcaster, is born in Dublin on June 6, 1913. Renowned for his sharp wit and gentle self-deprecation, he published sixteen books, including Life in Thin Slices, Rough Husbandry, and How to Become a Scratch Golfer — a title that reflected his own skill as a golfer. Campbell was also a beloved television personality, best known for his appearances on the BBC’s Call My Bluff, where his humor and charm made him a household name.
