David George Philip Cholmondeley, 7th Marquess of Cholmondeley (born 27 June 1960) is the current Lord Great Chamberlain of England, technically as a partial holder of that office.
His full title is: The Most Honourable David George Philip Cholmondeley, Marquess of Cholmondeley, Earl of Rocksavage, Earl Cholmondeley, Viscount Cholmondeley of Kells, Viscount Malpas, Baron Cholmondeley of Namptwich, Baron Newborough of Newborough, Baron Newburgh.
Cholmondeley received his secondary education at Eton College, then attended the Sorbonne, the premier university in France. At the age of fourteen, he was a Page of Honour to HM The Queen, and he began acting as the hereditary Lord Great Chamberlain to Her Majesty in 1990. Additionally, he directed the film adaptation of Truman Capote's novel Other Voices, Other Rooms, using the pseudonym David Rocksavage, derived from his former courtesy title of Earl of Rocksavage, which he used before his accession to the marquessate in 1990 (see Burke's Peerage).
