King, was a British poet, writer and academic. LifeKing was educated at the University of Cambridge, England, and Lund University, Sweden, and held a Doctor of Literature in stylistics. He served as Assistant Director-General in charge of Education in England. Beginning in 1943, he was an official in the British Council, serving in Europe, Persia, and Pakistan. In 1966, after his first wife died, King married his second cousin, Patricia, a Mormon.
