Timeline

1921

Sir Michael Robert Emanuel Kerr (1 March 1921 – 14 April 2002) was a German-born British jurist, author, lawyer and High Court of Justice judge.

He had been told, he said, that he was England's first "foreign-born judge" in 800 years, but he was careful neither to confirm nor to refute that suggestion.

Michael Kerr was born in Berlin-Charlottenburg, Germany, the son of the composer-musician Julia Anna Franziska (née Weismann) and the drama critic Alfred Kerr.

He was the brother of the author Judith Kerr.

His family was Jewish.

Kerr and his family were forced to leave their homeland at the end of the Weimar Republic by the emergence of the Nazi Party.

1933

After 1933, the Kerr family lived in Switzerland, France and finally the United Kingdom, as noted in the work of Judith Kerr.

His experience as an immigrant allowed him to perfect skills in not only German but also French and English.

Sponsored by a friend of his father, Kerr was educated at Aldenham School.

That and his immigration experience may have created a wish to emulate and join the upper-middle class of his new homeland.

Kerr was beginning his studies at Clare College, Cambridge, when the Second World War began.

During the war, Kerr was at first identified as an enemy alien and interned at temporary camps around the country before he was sent to the Central Promenade Camp in Douglas, Isle of Man.

He was released on the intervention of the Home Secretary and later served as a pilot in the Royal Air Force; he reached the rank of flight lieutenant.

During the war he flew with No. 612 Squadron RAF in Vickers Wellington bombers against U-boats in the North Sea.

1946

After the war, he returned to Cambridge to study law and became a naturalised British subject in 1946.

1953

Kerr married Julia Braddock in 1953 and had three children: Candy, Jo and Tim born in 1954, 1956 and 1958.

1977

The couple separated in 1977, but since Julia did not agree to the divorce, he had to wait the statutory five years.

1978

Kerr chaired the Law Commission from 1978 to 1981 before he served on the Court of Appeal and finally on the London Court of International Arbitration.

1983

Kerr married Diana Sneezum on 29 January 1983 and had two children: Lucy in 1984 and Alexander in 1987.

2002

They remained happily married until Kerr's death in 2002.

In his autobiography As Far As I Remember he tells about his family, also reflected in books by his sister such as When Hitler Stole Pink Rabbit, and about his career in the British law system.

His short analytic writing is reminiscent of his father's style.

2012

His career eventually led him to the High Court of Justice, where he believed that he was the first senior judge born an alien since the 12th century.

2015

Tim was appointed to the High Court in 2015.
