 Robert Burns
He was the eldest of seven children born to William Burness, a struggling tenant farmer, and his wife, Agnes Broun.
Burns, Robert (1759-96), Scottish poet and writer of traditional Scottish folk songs, whose works are known and loved wherever the English language is read.
Charmed by Burns, the literati mistakenly believed him to be an untutored bard, a "Heavens-taught Plowman." He resented their condescension, and his bristling independence, blunt manner of speech, and occasional social awkwardness alienated admirers.

 Literary Encyclopedia: Robert Burns
Burns was the eldest of seven children born to William Burnes, a gardener (later a tenant farmer) from Kincardine, and Agnes Broun of Carrick, in Ayrshire.
Robert’s childhood and youth were marked by poverty and hard labour, as a succession of crofts leased by his father chronically failed to provide the family with a living; and the poor health (stemming from a weakened heart) which marred his later life probably had its roots in the hardships of this period.
Burns soon acquired local renown for the brilliance and the boldly satiric tone of his poems as they circulated among his Ayrshire acquaintances; but the publication of his first volume, the Kilmarnock Edition of 1786, had its immediate cause in a sequence of troubling events.

 Robert Burns at StAndrews.com
Born in Alloway, Ayrshire, in 1759 to William Burness, a poor tenant farmer, and Agnes Broun, Robert Burns was the eldest of seven.
However, Burns was more interested in poetry and, after a series of failed relationships, planned to escape to the safer, sunnier climes of the West Indies.
He spent his youth working his father's farm, and despite their relative poverty, Burns was extremely well read - at the insistence of his father, who employed a tutor for Robert and younger brother Gilbert.

 Rabbie Burns - Robert Burns, the Bard
Born in Alloway, Ayrshire, in 1759 to William Burness, a poor tenant farmer, and Agnes Broun, Robert Burns was the eldest of seven.
In a matter of weeks he was transformed from local hero to a national celebrity, fussed over by the Edinburgh literati of the day, and Jean Armour's father allowed her to marry him, now that he was no longer a lowly wordsmith.
He spent his youth working his father's farm, but in spite of his poverty he was extremely well read - at the insistence of his father, who employed a tutor for Robert and younger brother Gilbert.

Burns was the eldest of seven children born to William Burnes, a gardener (later a tenant farmer) from Kincardine, and Agnes Broun of Carrick, in Ayrshire.
The cottage in which he was born and spent his early life (now a museum) was built by his father: on the night of the poet’s birth the thatch blew off in a storm, forcing the family to seek shelter with a neighbour; an incident hinted at in the song “Rantin’, Rovin’ Robin”:
(The Rev. William Auld, parish minister of Mauchline, had administered a public rebuke to Burns for fornication with Jean Armour, whom he was eventually to marry.)

 Painter Agnes Martin dies at age 92 - THE ARTS - MSNBC.com
She was one of America’s most distinguished artists with an “amazing ability to reduce to essence all that we feel about space and light,” said Elizabeth Broun, director of the Smithsonian’s American Art Museum in Washington, D.C. “She stands for an awful lot in the story of contemporary art over the past 50 years.”
Martin had lived a simple life in the artists’ haven in northern New Mexico since 1991, even as her art grew in popularity in major cities throughout the world.
“She was one of America’s most significant and best-known artists, certainly one of the most innovative and original artists of the 20th century,” said David L. Witt, curator at the University of New Mexico’s Harwood Museum of Art in Taos.

 Rabbie Burns - Robert Burns, the Bard
Born in Alloway, Ayrshire, in 1759 to William Burness, a poor tenant farmer, and Agnes Broun, Robert Burns was the eldest of seven.
However, Robert was more interested in the romantic nature of poetry than the arduous graft of ploughing and, having had some misadventures with the ladies (resulting in several illegitimate children, including twins to the woman who would become his wife, Jean Armour), he planned to escape to the safer, sunnier climes of the West Indies.
When his father died in 1784, Robert and his brother became partners in the farm.
