Ben King
Ben King's first academic success was a grade B in Art aged 14 (back in the days before grade inflation). But he hasn't done much art since then. Instead, he has gotten more academic degrees than is probably healthy. He is the co-editor of two books about John Henry Newman, and the author of two books, most recently The Oxford Movement and the People of God: Enslavement, Education, and Empire (Oxford University Press, 2025).
