Irving Ned "Jay" Landesman was an American publisher, nightclub owner, writer, and long-time expatriate resident in London. He was also a member at The Colony Room Club which was a private members' drinking club at 41 Dean Street, Soho, London. It was founded and presided over by Muriel Belcher from its inception in 1948 until her death in 1979. The artist Francis Bacon was a founder and lifelong member, and the club attracted a mixture of Soho's low-lifes and its alcoholic, artistic elite, including George Melly, Jeffrey Bernard and Lucian Freud.
