Mr Les Williams

Les Williams was born in a Lancashire seaside town but moved to South Wales with his family at the age of 11. He has always been an avid reader and has a passion for history and art, and he likes to combine these interests in any way he can. He has been a keen history buff all of his life and is fortunate to live in an area rich in Roman and Medieval history. Moreover, Les is fascinated by the human and social aspects of any period in history and how these events shape the lives of the people involved.

In addition to his writing activity, Les also paints pop-art pictures of legends of the stage and screen and has had some success in this venture. He has exhibited (and sold) work at the official Ryder Cup Exhibition in 2012 and has sold pieces in other markets and forums, including Pebble Beach Golf Resort in California. He is also a keen photographer and motorcyclist.

Les has retired from his managerial career and now spends his time reading, writing and painting, as well as enjoying valuable time with his family.
