Biographical Note

James Thomas Harris (February 14, 1856 – August 27, 1931) was an editor, author and journalist famous for his sexually explicit and factually unreliable four volume memoir My Life and Loves, as well as for his friendships with notable public and literary figures Oscar Wilde, George Bernard Shaw and Aleister Crowley. Harris was editor of British periodicals the Evening News, the Fortnightly Review, The Saturday Review (for which he hired George Bernard Shaw) and the U.S. edition of Pearson's Magazine. In addition to My Life and Loves his work includes Oscar Wilde: His Life and Confessions, Life of Bernard Shaw and Contemporary Portraits.
