'The Extraordinary Life of Clive Murphy' Documentary on resonance fm.
'The Extraordinary Life of Clive Murphy' is a documentary about writer and historian Clive Murphy. Clive is best known for his 'ordinary lives' series of books for which he interviewed various subjects about their lives before editing and publishing a memoir with them. A chorus girl, a pig farmer and a lavatory attendant were among those he chose. He has also published three novels and a several volumes of Ribald Rhymes.
'The Extraordinary Life of Clive Murphy' is based around an interview from 2019 I did with Clive in which he speaks from his home on Brick Lane about his life and work.
An archive of Clive's work is kept at the Bishopsgate Institute in London.
