Urodzony: 1965 (data przybliżona)
Singapore-based Danny Chaplin was born in London in 1965 and attended Bancroft's School and The University of York where he took a B.A. in Philosophy. At twenty-five, he relocated from the UK to Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia where, after a year writing travel articles for the in-flight magazines of various Asian airlines, he joined Edelman Public Relations to coordinate Visit Asean Year 1992. In 1993, he relocated to Singapore, becoming a vice-president with another international PR firm, Fleishman-Hillard. In 2001, he started his own PR agency. His Public Relations career has routinely taken him to many distant corners of Asia.
Danny's historical interests cover the ancient, Medieval and Renaissance periods with an emphasis on Italy and a focus on early modern political power structures. His first book, 'Strenuitas: The Life and Times of Robert Guiscard and Bohemond of Taranto', examined this in the context of the eleventh-century Norman invasion of southern Italy.
His second book, 'The Medici: Rise of a Parvenu Dynasty, 1360-1537' explored how Florence's famous banking family achieved political hegemony. His third book, 'Pietro Aretino: The First Modern', looked at how a notorious sixteenth-century poet, playwright, satirist, pornographer and blackmailer thrived whilst France and the Holy Roman Empire competed over the prostrate corpse of Italy.
His fourth and most popular book, 'Sengoku Jidai. Three Unifiers of Japan: Nobunaga, Hideyoshi and Ieyasu' shifted focus from Italy to sixteenth and seventeenth century Japan, covering the hegemonic activities of three critically important Japanese daimyos. His fifth book 'BORGIA, Behind the Myth: A New History of the Notorious Papal Family' explored the picaresque, cut-throat world of Rodrigo and Cesare Borgia.
Genealogy is another of Danny’s interests and he is a direct descendant of "the cruel pagan" known as Edward the Longshanks.
