Timeline
Erik Cecil Leon de Mauny (17 September 1920 – 18 March 1997) was an English journalist, author, and the BBC's first Moscow correspondent, working for them there from 1963, and as a foreign correspondent in other countries.
Erik de Mauny was born in London on 17 September 1920, to musicians.
He obtained a degree in Russian at the School of Slavonic and East European Studies.
He worked for the BBC from 1949, in External Services News (1949–1955), as foreign duty editor (1955–1958), correspondent in Vienna and Balkans (1958), Middle East (based in Beirut, 1958–1960), and Washington, D.C. (1960–1963).
He reported from Cuba following the Bay of Pigs episode.
The BBC had been attempting to secure permission from the USSR to base a correspondent in Moscow since at least World War II but had always been rebuffed.
De Mauny married Denyse Aghion, a Jewish Egyptian, in 1950; the marriage was annulled and dissolved in 1969.
The annulment allowed de Mauny, a convert to Catholicism, to marry a Roman Catholic journalist, Elizabeth Mary Lois Bower, a daughter of Commander Robert Tatton Bower, Conservative MP for Cleveland.
They received permission in 1963 under the era of Nikita Khrushchev's presidency.
The following year, de Mauny secured an interview with the exiled spy, Kim Philby, confirming the latter's presence in Moscow, and covered the fall of Khrushchev.
While in the USSR, his activities were severely limited.
He was required to obtain permission to travel more than a few miles outside Moscow.
To communicate with London he had to book telephone lines hours in advance.
The bookings were not always honoured.
He moved from Moscow to the BBC's Paris bureau in 1966.
The couple's son, Marc de Mauny (born 1971), is a musician who studied at St Petersburg Conservatory and as of 2013 was general manager and executive producer of the Perm Opera and Ballet Theatre in Russia.
They also had a daughter.
Both children were born in France, where the couple initially lived after retirement.
He returned as the Moscow correspondent in 1972.
In 1974, he reported the arrest of Alexander Solzhenitsyn, writer and dissident.
de Mauny finally left Moscow in 1974.
He was a BBC Foreign Duty Editor (1974–1977) and then Special Correspondent for working for Radio 4's The World Tonight (1977–1980).
Erik de Mauny died in Lancaster on 18 March 1997.
de Mauny also wrote an unpublished autobiography, Shouting Through the Static.
He wrote regular reviews for the Times Literary Supplement.
