James Bond 之父--Ian
Fleming
Ian Lancaster Fleming (May 28, 1908 - August 12, 1964) was
a British author, journalist and Second World War Naval Officer. He is best
remembered for creating the character of James Bond and chronicling his
adventures in twelve novels and nine short stories. Additionally, Fleming wrote
the children's story Chitty Chitty Bang Bang and two non-fiction books.
Ian Fleming was born in Mayfair, London, to Valentine Fleming, a Member of
Parliament, and his wife Evelyn Ste Croix Fleming (née Rose). Ian was the
younger brother of travel writer Peter Fleming and the older brother of Michael
and Richard Fleming (1910-77). He also had an illegitimate half-sister, the
cellist Amaryllis Fleming. He was the grandson of Scottish financier Robert
Fleming, who founded the Scottish American Investment Trust and merchant bank
Robert Fleming & Co. (since 2000 part of JP Morgan Chase). The actor
Christopher Lee is his cousin, and actress Dame Celia Johnson is his
sister-in-law (wife of his brother Peter).
Fleming was educated at Durnford School in Dorset, Eton College and the Royal
Military Academy Sandhurst. He won the Victor Ludorum at Eton two years running,
something that had only been achieved once before him. He found Sandhurst to be
uncongenial, and after an early departure from there, his mother sent him to
study languages on the continent. He first went to a small private establishment
in Kitzbühel, Austria run by the Adlerian disciples Ernan Forbes Dennis and his
American wife, the novelist Phyllis Bottome, to improve his German and prepare
him for the Foreign Office exams, then to Munich University, and, finally, to
the University of Geneva to improve his French. He was unsuccessful in his
application to join the Foreign Office, and subsequently worked as a sub-editor
and journalist for the Reuters news service, including time in 1933 in Moscow,
and then as a stockbroker with Rowe and Pitman, in Bishopsgate. He was a member
of Boodle's the gentleman's club in St. James's Street, from 1944 until his
death in 1964.
His marriage in Jamaica in 1952 to Anne Charteris, daughter of
Lord Wemyss and former wife of Viscount Rothermere, was witnessed by his friend,
playwright Noel Coward.
