Obituary Notice
Born March 25, 1887, in Cambridge, England; died July 5, 1982, in Cambridge, England. Physician and author. A physician and surgeon who specialized in cancer of the breast, goiters, and blood transfusions, Keynes was a brother of the famous economist John Maynard Keynes. Geoffrey Keynes was active in the Royal College of Surgeons, acting as its Hunterian Professor, its Vicary lecturer, a member of its council, and chairman of its library committee. He received a gold medal from the college in 1969. The physician served with the Royal Army Medical Corps during World War I and joined the Royal Air Force during World War II. As a writer, his "latitudinarian approach" to bibliography, said a LONDON TIMES reporter, produced "readable and elegant" results while it "introduced to a wide circle of cultivated readers a subject in which, as many had thought, imagination and narrative had little place." His most famous bibliographies are of John Donne, John Evelyn, and William Harvey. Keynes's subsequent biography of Harvey was awarded the James Tate Black Memorial Prize in 1966. Keynes also designed and edited sixteen books for Nonesuch Press with Francis Meynell and was chairman of the National Portrait Gallery for more than ten years. He produced the 1931 ballet "Job" as well. The author was knighted in 1955. He enjoyed carving, joinery, and bricklaying as hobbies. His writings include BLOOD TRANSFUSION, JANE AUSTEN: A BIBLIOGRAPHY, THE EARLY DIAGNOSIS OF MALIGNANT DISEASE, JOHN RAY: A BIBLIOGRAPHY, and THE GATES OF MEMORY.
