Isherwood, Christopher William Bradshaw

Isherwood, Christopher William Bradshaw (1904–86) English writer. His novels, characteristically dealing with the sensibility of the homosexual artist, include All the Conspirators (1928) and Mr Norris Changes Trains (1935), set in pre-war Germany. The musical Cabaret (1966) was based on a short story from Goodbye to Berlin (1939). He collaborated on three plays with W. H. Auden, including The Ascent of F6 (1936). He emigrated to the USA in 1939, and became interested in Hinduism.
