Sir Harold Graham-Hodgson, [K.C.V.O.], was born in 1890 and educated at St. Edward's School, Oxford and Clare College, Cambridge. On the outbreak of the Great War he interrupted his medical training to serve in the Army as a Despatch Rider, but by the end of 1914 he was persuaded to return to complete his studies, and two years later he qualified as a M.D. at the University of Durham. Going back to France as a Battalion Medical Officer, he was wounded in 1917 and afterwards posted as Radiologist to the Second Northern General Hospital in Leeds. After demobilisation he served for a short time as a General Practitioner but from 1922 onwards he devoted himself to radiology. In 1924 he became Director of the X-ray Department of King's College Hospital until 1934 when he held the same post at the Middlesex Hospital. In 1929 he was called in by Lord Dawson to examine King George V during his illness and was appointed C.V.O. Latterly a Fellow of the Faculty of Radiologists, he held office as President of the Radiology Section of the Royal Society of Medicine. Graham-Hodgson was appointed a K.C.V.O. in 1950 and died in 1960.
