Rory MacLean is one of Britain's most creative and acclaimed non-fiction writers. His ten books, including UK bestsellers Stalin's Nose and Under the Dragon (both TPP), have challenged and invigorated the genre, and-according to the late John Fowles-are among works that, marvellously explain why literature still lives. He has won awards from the Canada Council, the Arts Council of England, as well as a Winston Churchill Travelling Fellowship, and was nominated for the International IMPAC Dublin Literary prize. He has also written and presented over 50 BBC radio programmes and worked on movies with Marlene Dietrich and David Bowie, as well as writing regularly for the Guardian. A Fellow of the Royal Society of Literature, Rory divides his time between Berlin, Dorset, and London where he is writer-in-residence at the Archive of Modern Conflict, weaving narratives into its collection of four million photographs.
The Archive of Modern Conflict (AMC) was founded in the early 1990s by David Thomson, owner of Thomson Reuters. The AMC collection includes over 4 million photographs, both professional and amateur: personal albums, press photos, the archives of defunct institutions, regimental albums, postcards, posters, and objects. The Tate Modern's recent exhibition, Conflict, Time Photography, contained an installation at its center, which was devised by the AMC.
