Michael Smith is the Defence Correspondent of the Daily Telegraph. He was born in 1952 and served with the British Army for 15 years, mainly with the Intelligence Corps in much the same role as that carried out by most of those who worked at Bletchley Park 30 years earlier. He left the army in 1982 and worked for the BBC before joining the Daily Telegraph in 1990. He has since reported on the 1991 Gulf War, and on successive conflicts in the Balkans, Afghanistan and Iraq. He is the author of a number of books on espionage including the number one bestseller Station X: The Codebreakers of Bletchley Park; The Emperor's Codes; and Foley: The Spy Who Saved 10,000 Jews, which led to the official Israeli recognition of the former MI6 officer Frank Foley as Righteous Among Nations, the same award given to Raoul Wallenberg and Oskar Schindler. His latest book The Spying Game: The Secret History of British Intelligence was published in April 2003.
