Henry Swanzy

Henry Swanzy (14 June 1915 – 19 March 2004) was an Anglo-Irish radio producer in Britain's BBC General Overseas Service who is best known for his role in promoting West Indian literature particularly through the programme ''Caribbean Voices'', where in 1946 he took over from Una Marson, the programme's first producer. Swanzy introduced unpublished writers and continued the magazine programme "with energy, critical insight and generosity".〔Erika J. Waters, ("Interview With John J. M. Figueroa" ), ''The Caribbean Writer'', 2010, quoting Figueroa's introduction to his anthology ''Caribbean Voices'' (Evans Brothers, 1971).〕 It is widely acknowledged that "his influence on the development of Caribbean literature has been tremendous".〔(CaribArts, May 2004. )〕
