Biography

Sir Jocelyn Edward Greville Stevens was the British publisher of Queen magazine, then a London newspaper executive, and later the chairman of English Heritage.

Education and career

Stevens attended Eton College and Trinity College, Cambridge, and Sandhurst, where he won the Sword of Honour. He went on to do national service in the Rifle Brigade.

He built a career in journalism and publishing. In 1957, he bought the British high society publication The Queen, which he revamped, renaming it Queen and hiring Beatrix Miller as editor. He hired Mark Boxer as art director and Antony Armstrong-Jones, future husband of Princess Margaret, as photographer.

In the 1960s, he provided financial backing for the first British pirate radio station Radio Caroline. In the 1960s–1970s, he was named as managing director of the Evening Standard and Daily Express newspapers. A British newspaper obituary observed that, in the course of his newspaper career, Stevens "revelled in his image as a posh bully, living up, or down, to Private Eye's nickname for him: 'Piranha teeth.'"

Stevens was Rector of the Royal College of Art from 1984 to 1992 and then Chairman of English Heritage from 1992 to 2000. In 1992, he was awarded a CVO for his part in curating the Sovereign Exhibition at the Victoria and Albert Museum, and he was knighted in 1996.
