The Cork on Cork Sir Kenneth Cork
This autobiography tells the story of a man courted by bankers, feared by swindlers, revered by lawyers, suspected by establishment accountants, trusted by trade unionists and called in to help out governments of more than one political tint. A senior partner in the firm of insolvency accountants Cork Gully, he has ranged out beyond the confines of the money men into the domain of the arts, guiding the Philharmonia Orchestra, London Festival Ballet and the Royal Shakespeare Company. He has held such diverse positions as Lord Mayor of London, Vice Chairman of the Arts Council and Chairman of the Royal Shakespeare Company.
