Herbert Skinner (trade unionist)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

John Herbert Sebastian Skinner (5 September 1861[1] – 2 June 1934) was a British trade unionist.

Skinner was born in Tiverton in Devon.[2] He was living with a 27-year-old aunt prior to his 10th birthday.[3] He worked as a compositor and moved to Kingston-upon-Hull to work at a newspaper there. He became involved with the Typographical Association, and in 1894 became its full-time National Organiser. From this post, he was promoted to Assistant General Secretary, then in 1900 was elected as its General Secretary.[4]

During his time as General Secretary, Skinner devoted much effort to building links with other unions. He represented the Typographical Association to the Trades Union Congress (TUC), serving for a time on the General Council of the TUC,[4] and in 1908 being chosen as its delegate to the American Federation of Labour. He also served on the Joint Industrial Council and Printing and Kindred Trades Federation.[4]

Skinner resigned from his trade union posts around the start of 1933, due to poor health, and died 18 months later in Manchester.[4][5]
