Alan Bold
Alan Norman Bold (1943–1998) was a Scottish poet, biographer, journalist and saxophonist. He was born in Edinburgh.He edited Hugh MacDiarmid's ''Letters'' and wrote the influential biography ''MacDiarmid''. Bold had acquainted himself with MacDiarmid in 1963 while still an English Literature student at Edinburgh University. His debut work, ''Society Inebrious'', with a lengthy introduction by MacDiarmid, was published in 1965, during Bold's final university year. This early publication kick-started a prolific poetic career with Bold publishing another three books of verse before the end of the decade, including the ambitious book-length poem ''The State of the Nation''. He also edited ''The Penguin Book of Socialist Verse'' (1970) and published a 1973 biography of Robert Burns.
Alan Bold married an art teacher, Alice. Their daughter Valentina is a Robert Burns scholar like her father, who teaches at the University of Glasgow. A lifelong heavy drinker who dealt with the boozy life of the poet in such collections as ''A Pint of Bitter'', Bold died after a short illness in a hospital in Kirkcaldy at the age of 54.
