About the author

The name City of London (England). Lord Mayor refers to an institutional author rather than one identifiable person. Catalogs such as Project Gutenberg use it for works published under the authority of the Lord Mayor of the City of London, especially older civic documents.

These works are typically formal publications connected with city government, including orders, announcements, and responses to public emergencies. One example listed by Project Gutenberg is Orders conceived and published by the Lord Major and Aldermen of the City of London, concerning the infection of the plague, which shows how the office functioned as the public voice of the City.

Because this is a corporate body and not a single individual, there is no single life story or personal portrait to attach here. The title itself belongs to a long-running office within the City of London, distinct from the modern Mayor of London.
