His father was a solicitor and Laurence was the sixth of seven children. His elder brother Alfred, known to the world as the poet A. E. Housman , was six years his senior. Laurence was educated locally until the age of eighteen when he went with his sister, Clemence, to study art in London. His first work was as a book illustrator with London publishers. Finding it difficult to make a living he turned more and more to writing and several volumes of poetry appeared in the 1890's. The novel An Englishwomen's love-letters (1900) was his first success but was published anonymously. He then turned to drama with Bethlehem (1902). Time and again he found himself at odds with the accepted standards of the day, which dictated that biblical characters and members of the Royal family could not be depicted on the stage. Many of Laurence Housman plays therefore first appeared at private theatre clubs before subsequent lifting of censorship restrictions. A prolific writer, with over a hundred published works, he covered a wide range of subjects and forms including poetry, novels, plays, non-fiction (covering socialism, feminism and pacifism) and stories for children. His poetry are considered to be rather derivative and he is probably best remembered now for his series of plays

7. An Uneasy Cuckoo In The Nest: Laurence Housman, 1865-1959
   An Uneasy Cuckoo in the Nest Laurence Housman, 18651959. by KimPelkey. The title of this article, An Uneasy Cuckoo in the Nest  
   http://www.brynmawr.edu/Library/Docs/housman.html
   
   Extractions: by Kim Pelkey The title of this article, "An Uneasy Cuckoo in the Nest," is taken from Laurence Housman's obituary in the London Times, which says of him: "A born radical under a conservative skin (a family inheritance), clothed in the formidable traditions of the Victorian era, he proceeded by degrees and at intervals to shed the clothing.... Whether as idealist or iconoclast, it was hard for him to be moderate. An uneasy cuckoo in the nest, he nevertheless regarded himself, as indeed he was, a 'Victorian.'" At the time of his death at the age of 94, in 1959, Laurence Housman left behind a legacy of over eighty books that spanned a working and creative life of more than fifty years. Although he has been described as "perhaps the most variously accomplished artist that has written poetry since Rossetti and Morris," Housman was overshadowed by his brother, the scholar-poet A. E. Housman, and remains little known today. While the literary and artistic merits of Housman's work alone warrant attention, the hundreds of items of Laurence Housmaniana in the Adelman Collection at Bryn Mawr College provide rich material for a fascinating look at turn-of-the-century England. As Housman's entry in the Dictionary of National Biography notes: "He lived so long, was friendly with so many of the leaders of thought in the critical decades of his middle life, and was connected with such a diversity of 'progressive' causes that his writings will always remain a valuable reflection of opinion and feeling when the twentieth century banished the nineteenth."

    Extractions: The illustrator, author and poet Laurence Housman was born in Bromsgrove, one of seven children (the eldest brother was A. E. Housman). He had a difficult childhood - his mother died when he was a young child, and the family lived in some degree of poverty. In 1882 he went with his sister Clemence Housman to Lambeth, where he studied at the City and Guilds Art School (not sure how this relates if at all to the Lambeth School of Art - any comments welcome?). Following this, he studied at South Kensington from 1887, and started book illustration in the following year. Early work appeared in a magazine called the Universal Review, then he illustrated books by George Meredith, Christina Rossetti ( Goblin Market ), and then two books of his own fairy stories in the mid-1890s - A House of Joy and A Farm in Fairyland , and later illustrated The Field of Clover . He stayed very close to his sister Clemence, who engraved for him, the pair finally settling in Street, Somerset in the 1920s. Both lived to an advanced age, she dying in 1955, he a few years later at the age of 95. As well as the illustration and poetry, Housman wrote a book on the artist Boyd Houghton, and did bookbinding. Housman was a disciple of Ricketts (whom he know at Lambeth), and above all of
