Patrick Joseph McGoohan was born in Astoria, Queens, New York City.
McGoohan left school at the age of sixteen and returned to Sheffield where he worked as a chicken farmer, a bank clerk and a lorry driver before getting a job as a stage manager at Sheffield Repertory Theatre. When one of the actors became ill, McGoohan was substituted, launching his acting career.
He established an extensive stage and film career, with his most notable roles in the 1960s television series Danger Man (renamed Secret Agent when exported to the US), and The Prisoner, which he co-created. McGoohan wrote and directed several episodes of The Prisoner himself, occasionally using the pseudonyms Joseph Serf and Paddy Fitz.
The Prisoner spends the entire series trying to escape from the Village and to learn the identity of his nemesis, Number One. The Prisoner was a completely new, cerebral kind of series, stretching the limits of the established television formulae.
The cult of The Prisoner spawned many books, college courses, a quarterly magazine and documentaries. There were several fan clubs—most notably "Six of One", which still honours the show annually with a convention in Portmeirion, North Wales, where the show's exteriors were shot.
McGoohan died on 13 January 2009 at Saint John's Health Center in Santa Monica, California, following a brief illness.
