Description: Producer and director John Read died aged 88. He invented the British arts documentary with his 1951 TV programme Henry Moore, the first programme to profile a living artist. At the time most TV programmes were broadcast live from the studios. Read wanted the programme shot on film, outside the BBC in Moore's studio and the sculptures outdoors. This was exceptional for the time. Read produced 5 further BBC films on Moore. He also produced definitive films or footage on Hepworth, Sutherland, John Piper, Stanley Spencer and LS Lowry. Obituary describes his family upbringing; education; career; approach to filming; his work with artists.
