Ian McKellen by Mark Barrett

Sir Ian McKellen has appeared in theatres around the country and on television and film screens since the 1960s. Now, with his parts in the first two X-Men films and the phenomenally successful The Lord of the Rings trilogy, he is known worldwide. This fully up-to-date biography includes new interviews and covers McKellen's childhood, his time at Cambridge University with, among others, Trevor Nunn and Derek Jacobi, roles in plays such as Henry V and The Seagull, Macbeth at the RSC, Broadway, running The Actors' Company and the McKellen/Petherbridge Company. Also covering McKellen's advocacy of gay issues and his opinions against war, it gives a well-rounded view of one of Britain's greatest stage and screen actors.
Mark Barratt is an actor, drama teacher and writer. He is the author of novels and radio plays for children and adults.
