Educated as an engineer, Sainsbury began writing juvenile fiction in the late 1920s, producing the Great Ace and Bill Bolton, Naval Aviator series under his own name and contributing to the Dorothy Dixon and Malay Jungle series under various pseudonyms, including under the maiden name of his second wife. He also wrote some sports-themed juvenile books, including Gridiron Grit and The Fighting Five, as a part of his Champion Sport Stories series.[1]

Sainsbury married twice, first Elizabeth (Bessie) Slade from whom he divorced, and then in 1926 Dorothy Wayne Illick. He had a child by each wife.
