Born on April 19, 1913, in Yorkshire, Wharton began his career as a journalist in the 1930s.

He often used humor to expose the absurdities and contradictions of the establishment. Wharton's work resonated with readers, and his column became a beloved feature of the newspaper. In addition to his journalistic pursuits, Wharton also authored several books, including "The Missing Will" and "The Diary of a Nobody." His contributions to British literature and his unique satirical voice continue to be celebrated today. Wharton passed away on January 23, 2006, leaving behind a legacy of insightful and humorous writing.
