Jeffrey Archer

Jeffrey Howard Archer was born in London on April 15, 1940, and is an English author and former politician. He was a Member of Parliament before becoming a novelist, but he had to leave owing to a financial controversy. During his three years of study, Archer earned an academic certificate in teaching from the Oxford University Department of Continuing Education, despite the fact that he maintains he was not a full undergraduate at Oxford. Later in life, Jeffrey Archer worked as a charity fundraiser and served as the Conservative Party's deputy chairman.

His debut novel, Not a Penny More, Not a Penny Less, was originally published in the United States and went on to become a hit in the United Kingdom in 1976, earning him enough money to keep him out of bankruptcy.
