Arthur Hailey was an acclaimed British-Canadian novelist, born on April 5, 1920, in Luton, England. He completed his education at William Hulme's Grammar School in Manchester and then served as a pilot in the Royal Air Force during World War II. After the war, he worked in advertising and public relations for many years, which helped him develop a keen sense of observation about the corporate world he often wrote about. In 1955, he published his first novel, "Butterfield 8," which was met with critical acclaim. However, it was his third novel, "Hotel," published in 1965, that propelled him to fame, and marked the start of his successful writing career. More about Arthur Hailey
