edit data

Alexander Wilson was an English writer, spy and MI6 officer.

Under his own name and the pseudonyms of Geoffrey Spencer, Gregory Wilson, and Michael Chesney, he penned 24 novels between 1928 and 1940. He wrote a further four unpublished novels and his last spy short story was published in a Faber & Faber collection My Best Spy Story in 1955.

Wilson was a bigamist; only after his death was it discovered that he had four wives, six sons, and one daughter. The 2018 miniseries Mrs Wilson tells the story from the point of view of his third wife, Alison (portrayed by Alexander and Alison's granddaughter: Ruth Wilson).
