The first, Julian Huxley (1887-1975), was a biologist and writer who was well known for his appearances on the radio and television programme The Brains Trust and later became director of UNESCO (1946-8). The second, Aldous Huxley (1894-1963), an author, is best known for his novel Brave New World (1932), which describes a future society in which people are born in factories and controlled by a continuous supply of drugs and sex. From 1937 Aldous Huxley lived in California, where his experiences with drugs became the subject of a later book, The Doors of Perception (1954).
