Charles Sydney Goldman (1868-1958): A Self-Made African Businessman, Author, Journalist, and Member of Parliament This portrait captures the enigmatic figure of Charles Sydney Goldman, an African-born British businessman, author, journalist, and Member of Parliament for Penryn and Falmouth between 1910 and 1918. Born in Africa, Goldman's early life remains shrouded in mystery, adding to the intrigue surrounding his remarkable career. Goldman's entrepreneurial spirit led him to amass a significant fortune in business, but it was his literary and journalistic talents that truly set him apart. He authored several books, including "The African Slave Trade" and "The Romance of Penryn and Falmouth," which showcased his deep understanding of African culture and his love for his adopted hometown. In addition to his writing, Goldman made a name for himself as a journalist, contributing to various publications such as Vanity Fair and The Spy. His insightful commentary and keen observations earned him a loyal following and solidified his reputation as a respected voice in journalism. Perhaps most notably, Goldman served as the Member of Parliament for Penryn and Falmouth from 1910 to 1918. His political career was marked by his dedication to social reform and his commitment to improving the lives of the working class. Despite facing numerous challenges and controversies, Goldman remained a steadfast advocate for his beliefs, leaving a lasting impact on British politics. This photograph, taken during Goldman's later years, captures the intensity and intelligence of a man who defied expectations and left an indelible mark on history. With a camera's lens, we are granted a glimpse into the life of a self-made African man who rose to prominence in British society, proving that success knows no boundaries.
