Jack O'Brien Dash was a British communist and trade union leader, famous for his role in London dock strikes. Born in Southwark to a family which was often in poverty, Dash grew up on Rockingham Street. His father Thomas was a scene shifter at the theatre where he met Dash's mother, Rose Gertrude John, who appeared on stage there. She died aged 40 of tuberculosis, when Dash was seven, followed a few years later by his father. Dash left school at 14 to work as a page boy at a Lyons Corner House.
