Known as The Viscount French between 1916 and 1922, French was a British Army officer. Born in Kent to an Anglo-Irish family, he saw brief service as a midshipman in the Royal Navy, before becoming a cavalry officer.

He became Lord Lieutenant of Ireland in 1918, a position that he held throughout much of the Irish War of Independence. Whilst serving in this position he published 1914, a volume of memoirs.
