I can tell you that he was a legendary advertising photographer, assisting people like Norman Parkinson before setting up on his own in the late 60's. In the late 80's he co-founded The Lighthouse Darkrooms. He died sometime in the 90's.
He was at his peak when I was knocking around the business but I was never lucky enough to meet him.
His work is hard to find as he never really got known outside the business.
There is a reference here with a link to some of his pictures:

If you can find the Lighthouse website you may find out more about him.
