Noel Gilroy Annan, Baron Annan, OBE (25 December 1916 – 21 February 2000) was a British military intelligence officer, author, and academic. During his military career, he rose to the rank of colonel and was appointed an OBE. He was provost of King's College, Cambridge 1956–66, provost of University College, London 1966–78, vice-chancellor of the University of London, and a member of the House of Lords. Annan's publications include ''Leslie Stephen'' (1951)—awarded the James Tait Black Memorial Prize), ''Roxburgh of Stowe'' (1965), ''Our Age'' (1990), described by Professor John Gray in the ''New Statesman'' as a "marvellous compendium of the higher gossip,"() ''Changing Enemies'' (1995), and ''The Dons'' (1999). His best-known essay is "The Intellectual Aristocracy," which illustrates, according to Robert Fulford in the ''National Post'', the "web of kinship that united British intellectuals (the Darwins, Huxleys, Macaulays, etc.) in the 19th and early 20th centuries."() ==Early life and education== Annan was born in Gloucester Terrace, London, and was educated at St. Winnifred's School, Seaford in East Sussex, and Stowe School.〔According to (this obituary in the Guardian newspaper (link) ) dated February 2000, accessed 5 February 2014.〕 At Stowe, he was head of Temple House, and editor of the school newspaper ''The Stoic''. He went up to King's College, Cambridge〔 in 1935, where he read History, then continued for a fourth year to read Law. While at King's, he was recruited into the Cambridge Apostles, a secret debating society whose members included Guy Burgess, and Michael Straight, who later became spies for the Soviet Union (see Cambridge Five).
