Matthew Engel is a Financial Times columnist and the News International Visiting Professor of Media, Oxford University for 2010-11
Matthew Engel has had a journalistic career of unusual variety over more years than he cares to remember: he covered the first Gulf War, the fall of the Berlin Wall, the death of Princess Diana and the September 11 attacks.
He has also reported more than 70 different sports, from the World Cup soccer finals to the European tiddlywinks championship. He has edited 12 of the 144 editions of Wisden Cricketers’ Almanack, “the cricketers’ bible”, but is equally enthusiastic about baseball.
His latest work, Extracts from the Red Notebooks, is published by Macmillan. This is intended to raise money for the Laurie Engel Fund, set up in conjunction with the Teenage Cancer Trust in memory of his son, who died in 2005 aged 13.
