Widely known as "Dick," he is part of the prominent Bonnycastle family founded in Canada by British soldier, Sir Richard Henry Bonnycastle.Dick Bonnycastle graduated from the University of Manitoba in 1956 and eventually joined Harlequin Enterprises, a romance novel publishing business founded in 1949 by his father, Richard H. G. Bonnycastle. On the death of his father in 1968, Dick Bonnycastle assumed management of Harlequin and would serve as its Chairman until 1981. Within a few years of taking over from his father, he moved the company's operations to Toronto, Ontario where he would build it into a major international force in the book publishing industry. By 1971, Dick Bonnycastle had orchestrated the buyout of British publisher Mills & Boon and had contracted with Pocket Books and Simon and Schuster to distribute the Mills & Boon novels in the United States. In addition, he oversaw expansion to Australia in 1974, The Netherlands in 1975, set up a joint venture in 1976 in West Germany and in 1977 established a subsidiary in France. Dick Bonnycastle saw his company grow to where it would command eighty percent of the romance fiction market in North America. In late 1975, Toronto Star Ltd. purchased a 52.5 percent interest in Harlequin Enterprises and in 1981 acquired the balance of the company's shares. [1]Dick Bonnycastle is currently Chairman and President of his private investment company, Cavendish Investing Ltd.

[3] He has served as Chairman of Bracknell Corporation (1983–90), Rupertsland Resources Ltd.
