Trevor Grove (born 1 January 1945[1]) is a Britishjournalist and former editor ofThe Sunday Telegraph[2] (1989–1992).
Raised and educated inBuenos Aires, Argentina, where he was educated atSt. George's College, Quilmes,[3] Grove was appointed editor ofThe Sunday Telegraph on 3 October 1989 underMax Hastings, then editor-in-chief of both the daily and Sunday titles. Unusually, the previous editor,Peregrine Worsthorne, was not removed from the newspaper, but instead was retained as editor of the comment section. This prompted the emergence of factionalism on the newspaper, which made Grove's position difficult. He was eventually succeeded in 1992, after less than three years in the post, byCharles Moore. Grove subsequently moved back to Argentina to launchEl Periodico de Tucuman. In 2004 he was the director ofInside Time, the national publication for UK prisoners.
He has also written a number of books, includingThe Juryman's Tale (1998),[4] a defence of the jury system,[5] andOne Dog and His Man about his relationship with his Dalmatian dog.
He is married to the columnist and interviewerValerie Grove. He is also a magistrate. InWho's Who he gives his recreations as "playing tennis, messing about in a boat, learning the tango, walking the dog".[3]
