Raphael Ibrahim 10TS 23rd October 2003 English Coursework: ' An Inspector Calls' John Boyton Preistly was born on 13th September 1894 in Bradford, Yorkshire. Priestly decided to leave school at sixteen rather then work toward a university scholarship. 'I wanted to write' he says in his autobiography. He believed 'the world outside of classrooms' would make him a better writer, and he felt that he 'must spend at least the next few years trying his hand at it'. It was during the period before World War One, that Preistly acquired and developed the skills that would make him an exceptional writer. Priestly says himself that the years 1911-1914 'set their stamp on me'. Priestly found himself spending time with people who read a great deal, cared a lot for at least one of the arts and preferred real talk....hot argument to social chit-chat. But there weren't any professional writers...
