Jack Clemo - Public Recognition

Public Recognition

By the age of 65 he had achieved sufficient recognition for a dramatised version of his biography, directed by Norman Stone, to be produced and screened by the BBC in 1981. No tapes of this programme have survived. A few years later a biography of Jack Clemo was written by Sally Magnusson. His portrait was also painted by Tricia Porter in 1975 and is displayed at the National Portrait Gallery in London.
