About Kenneth Tynan
Kenneth Peacock Tynan (2 April 1927 – 26 July 1980) was an English theatre critic and writer. Initially making his mark as a critic at The Observer, he praised John Osborne's Look Back in Anger (1956) and encouraged the emerging wave of British theatrical talent.
In 1963 Tynan was appointed the new National Theatre Company's literary manager.
An opponent of theatre censorship, he is thought to have been the first person to say "fuck" on British television, during a live 1965 broadcast.
Later in life he settled in California, where he resumed his writing career.
