P G Wodehouse is widely regarded as the greatest comic author of the 20th century. He wrote more than 70 novels and 200 short stories, creating numerous much-loved characters, including Lord Emsworth and his beloved Empress of Blandings, the inimitable Jeeves and Wooster, Mr Mulliner, Ukridge, Psmith and the Oldest Member.

His humorous – often hilarious – articles were published in more than 80 magazines, including contributions to Punch over a period of 60 years.

Wodehouse was also a celebrated lyricist, collaborating with Jerome Kern, George Gershwin, Ivor Novello, and Cole Porter on many hit musicals for both Broadway and the West End.

He had been battling a lung condition for several years. A tribute to Richard from Hilary Bruce can be found here and please also click here to read Richard's message as President to visitors to the site. All members of the Society, and Wodehouse fans everywhere, are feeling the loss of a great friend.
