Jonathan Glancey

An Honorary Fellow of The Royal Institute of British Architects, Jonathan Glancy is the Architecture and Design Editor of The Guardian newspaper, a post he previously held at The Independent

Prior to this, he was assistant editor of the Architectural Review, editor of The Architect and a founding editor of the architecture and design magazine, Blueprint.

Described as a 'wonderful communicator' by Norman Foster, Jonathan is a talented, provocative and stimulating writer. He is the author of several books on architecture, a contributor to architecture and design magazines, as well as a regular television and radio broadcaster.

When he's not voicing his opinions on architecture past and present, Jonathan spends his spare time flying light aircraft (he is currently writing a book on the subject) and driving his small fleet of classic cars - he is especially fond of his red jaguar. He lives in London, a city which combines both his favourite dome; St Paul's, which he can see from his flat in the Barbican, and his pet-hate; the mass of tourists who click away with their cameras in buildings of beauty and serenity!
