Buckley, William F(rank) Jr (1925–2008)| US conservative political writer, novelist, and founder-editor of the National Review (1955). In such books as Up from Liberalism (1959), and in a weekly television debate Firing Line (1966–99), he represented the ‘intellectual’ right-wing, anti-liberal stance in US political thought. One of the most widely syndicated US columnists – appearing in over 300 newspapers – Buckley wrote many best-selling books, including God and Man at Yale (1951) and the novels Stained Glass (1979), Elvis in the Morning (2001), and Getting it Right (2003). |
| In 1991 Buckley received the Presidential Medal of Freedom. |
