Ian Nimmo White

Ian Nimmo White was born in Paisley in 1948. He served Fife Council as a youth and community worker for 35 years before retiring in 2008, and much of his poetry reflects this long experience of working with people of all ages. His verse, in both English and Scots, has appeared prolifically in literary magazines throughout the UK. Two previous book-length collections have been produced, Standing Back (Petrel Publications) in 2000 and Symmetry (Trafford Publishing) in 2007. He was editor of Fife Lines poetry magazine from 1998 to 2005.
