Hamish Scott Henderson, (11 November 1919 – 9 March 2002; Scottish Gaelic: ''Seamas MacEanraig'' (''Seamas Mòr'')) was a Scottish poet, songwriter, communist, soldier and intellectual. He has been referred to as the most important Scots poet since Robert Burns and was a catalyst for the folk revival in Scotland. He was also an accomplished folk song collector and discovered such notable performers as Jeannie Robertson, Flora MacNeil and Calum Johnston. ==Early life== Born to a single mother in Blairgowrie, Perthshire, Henderson eventually moved to England with his mother. He won a scholarship to the prestigious Dulwich School in London; however, his mother died shortly before he was due to take up his place and he was forced to live in an orphanage while studying there. He studied Modern Languages at Downing College, Cambridge, in the years leading up to World War II, and as a visiting student in Germany, ran messages for a Quaker organization aiding the German resistance and helping to rescue Jews.〔
