About John Worthen

John Worthen taught at universities in North America and Wales before becoming Professor of D. H. Lawrence Studies at the University of Nottingham, where he remains Emeritus Professor. His inaugural lecture as Professor of D. H. Lawrence Studies was published under the title Cold Hearts and Coronets. His career as Lawrence’s biographer began in the 1980s and culminated in the celebrated D. H. Lawrence: The Early Years 1885–1912, the first part of the definitive three-volume Cambridge biography. Material from this project later formed the foundation of Worthen's single-volume study, D. H. Lawrence: The Life of an Outsider (2005).
