W. S. Gilbert
William S. Gilbert was born on the November 18, 1836 at 17 Southampton Street, Strand, London. His upbringing was marked by conflict with, and between, his parents who were stern and cold. His father, once a naval surgeon wrote short stories and novels in his later years and his mother Anne Mary Bye Morris, was the daughter of Thomas Morris, a famed apothecary.
Much of Gilbert’s childhood would be spent travelling throughout Europe due to his father’s work. He was educated in France from the age of seven. On returning to London, he attended Western Grammar School, Brompton and finally Great Ealing School. It was here that Gilbert discovered his love of plays and literature, becoming head boy and writing plays for school performances.
After school he joined Kings College London with the intention of later joining the Royal Artillery. However, the end of the Crimean War meant fewer recruits were needed and he decided instead to join the Civil Service, where, for four years he was an assistant clerk in the Privy Council Office. He did not enjoy the career and spent much of his time as a volunteer officer in the Militia, formed in defence of Britain, where he attained the rank of Captain. After a brief stint as a barrister, Gilbert supplemented his income by writing stories, comic rants, grotesque illustrations, theatre reviews
