Bywgraffiad Awdur:
At 96 years old George Brinley Evans has lived a full and impressive life. At age 14 he worked in Banwen Colliery before joining the army 4 years later to serve in Burma with the 856 Motor Boats, first with the 15th Indian Corps then the 12th Army.

George returned to Banwen Colliery after the war, married Peggy Jones and raised a family together. After losing an eye in an accident in the Cornish Drift, George began practicing as a sculptor and painter, as well as writing scripts for independent television and the BBC. George still lives and works in Banwen.
