Wilfred Gibson is a poet born in Hexham, Northumberland. He left his birthplace when his mother died in 1914 and was successful in publishing poems in magazines since 1895. His collections of verse plays and dramatic poems were published by Samurai Press and later made a book entitled The Web of Life. Many of his poems were dedicated to his birthplace that talked about fishermen, industrial workers, and miners that often included rick folk-songs and local ballads of the North East.
