Geoffrey Munn @ Southwold Literary Festival

Geoffrey Munn is a jewellery specialist, historian and writer, best known as a television presenter on the BBC Antiques Roadshow. His first and only permanent position has been with the court jewellers Wartski which he joined at 19 and stayed until 2018.
Geoffrey wrote a history of his hometown called “Southwold-An Earthly Paradise”. In 2013 he was awarded an OBE for services to charity and in the New Years Honours of 2018 the Queen appointed him MVO.

“A Touch of Gold: The Reminiscences of Geoffrey Munn” was published this year and is a witty and star-studded memoir that recounts Munn’s journey from rural England to the heights of the art world. It contains Munn’s encounters with royalty and celebrities, from HM Queen Elizabeth The Queen Mother, Frank Sinatra and Bing Crosby to Elton John.
