Chris Cheek

Chris lives on the Sussex Coast in the UK, with his husband Michael. They have been together for over 40 years, and became civil partners in 2009. This was 'upgraded' to a marriage in 2015.

Chris loves music of all kinds - classical, jazz and pop. Favourite composers would be Elgar and Mozart in the classical world, George Gershwin and Cole Porter in the popular. Favourite artists include Frank Sinatra, Ella Fitzgerald, Mel Tormé, George Shearing, Oscar Peterson ... and many others too numerous to name! Recent discoveries include Keith Urban and Steve Grand.

Chris has loved reading all his life, particularly biography, contemporary history, detective fiction and romantic m/m fiction. He loves theatre of all kinds, and goes regularly locally, in London's West End and at Chichester Festival Theatre most summers.

Chris has worked in passenger transport in the UK for over 48 years, as manager, consultant, analyst and commentator, publishing extensively on bus, rail and rapid transit matters. He speaks regularly at conferences.
