Arthur L. C. Humphreys (1917–2003)[1] was a managing director of International Computers Limited and a long-time member of the British computer industry.[2]
He joined the British Tabulating Machine Company in 1940, and was involved in the negotiations with Powers-Samas that led to the formation of International Computers and Tabulators in 1958.[1] In 1968, on the formation of ICL, he became its first Managing Director.[1] When Geoff Cross became managing director in 1972, Humphreys was moved to the post of Deputy Chairman, where he remained until his retirement in 1983.[1]
