	John Curry - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		John Curry (born 9 September 1949 in Birmingham, England, died 15 April 1994 in Binton) was a British figure skater who won the Olympic and World Championships in 1976.
		Curry's father died when he was 16; he then moved to London to study with Arnold Gerschwiler, who coached him to his first British title in 1971.
		Curry was reportedly a difficult person to get along with, and a dispute with the business managers of his company forced it to suspend operations in the mid-1980s.

		However, it was John Curry – a ground-breaking figure skater whose own brilliant career was dogged by professional failure and personal tragedy – who was responsible for the rise of this new form.
		Born in 1949, John Curry was a dance enthusiast from an early age: he had wanted to take ballet classes when he was five years old, but his father refused.
		John's return to London in 1984, using a rink hastily created for the occasion in the Albert Hall, was a critical and commercial triumph.
