About the Author: Harry ‘Aitch’ Fielder was born in London in 1940. He was evacuated to the country soon after, returning to London at the end of World War II. One of six children, he left school, aged 15, after the death of his father and worked at various jobs to contribute to the family budget.
Harry’s first experience of the entertainment business was playing guitar and performing in a local band. One night after a gig, his friend him tipped off about an opportunity to work on The Saint and soon after Harry made his debut as a TV extra. A chance meeting with Bill Roach (Ken Barlow in Coronation Street) subsequently led to him joining the Extras Union and more work quickly followed.
For the next 32 years Harry worked as an extra, appearing in several films, television programmes and commercials. Prompted by his large fan-base to share his experiences, Harry decided to write his autobiography, and Extra, extra, read All About It was the result.
Harry was happily married to his wife, Mary, for 47 years, until her death in 2010. He has three grown-up children and five grandchildren.
