Martin Greenwood Author

Martin Greenwood was born and brought up in Bradford. He was educated at Bradford Grammar School and New College, Oxford University. During his career, he wrote widely on the business implications of information technology. As well as the biography of his celebrated grandfather, Percy Monkman, Martin published in 2021 an unusual history of Bradford. Every Day Bradford celebrates each day in the year with some important story from 1212 to 2020 - the impact of a strong-minded or talented individual, a critical event of success or disaster, or an important moment in the development of the city, its buildings or its institutions. Never before have such stories about everyday life in and around Bradford across the centuries been brought together in one volume. Martin has built a remarkable kaleidoscope of life in his home city from medieval times to the current day.
