Hmm… nothing on Google.

Digging out an old (1980) edition of the Clarinettist’s Bedside book, here’s a start. Everyone else can update it.

(Incidentally, if it’s still available (pub. Fentone Music F125), a good little book. 35 pages or so of good, no bullshit advice. Recommended.)

Born Sheffield England 1935. Started Clarinet age 12 with Wm. Tomlinson. 1949 was in Natl Youth Orchestra of GB. Scholarship 1952 to Royal College of Music, London, England. Teachers - Clarinet, Frederick Thurston, Ralph Clarke, Composition, John Addison.

Played with: Scottish National Orch, Bournemouth Symph Orch, BBC Symph Orch, London Symph Orch and (to my mind outclassing them all), the Band of the Irish Guards.

1969 Professor of Clarinet at the Royal Military School of Music, Kneller Hall. For 3 (unspecified) years, Prof of Clarinet at Trinity College of Music, London England. Sometimes Guest Adjudicator (Saxophone) at the Royal Brussels Conservatoire, Belgium. Also in 1969, joined the London Sax Quartet a good tone and a half out (sorry, I mean “…on Soprano sax…”).

As a writer of words, contributed to “Woodwind World” editor, Intl. Clarinet, Saax. Symposium, The Sax. Sheet, The School Musician, Crescendo Intl., Fanfare and the Jnl of the Clar and Sax Society of GB (was Vice Prez.)

(And I’ll feel a complete dick if this is a different Paul Harvey yo the one you're looking for…)
