Biographical / Historical

H. P. Shallard, an old Downing man, was President of the Downing College Association in 1981-2. He was Steward and Domestic Bursar from 1972-81, after a career in educational administration. He wrote and researched on Sir George Downing, grandfather of the founder of Downing College, for S. French, Ed. Aspects of Downing History (1982). However it was a subject to which he had first turned his attention as an undergraduate (Griffin, Easter 1938), and an ongoing interest. He died in August 2001.
