Who is Leigh Hunt and why is he in all of the newer CC books?

Leigh Hunt is a personal friend of clive's and he tends to work the name into a lot of his books. And it isn't just the newer novels, the name is used in the "older" ones as well!!

I think he is the Admiral Hunter in Pacific Vortex, the names Hunt and Hunter have been used.

Leigh also makes an appearance in Black Wind...
"I'm interested in a story of a local family that died suddenly from poisoning back in 1942."
"Oh, that would be Leigh Hunt," Margaret exclaimed with a knowing smugness. "He was a friend of my father...."

I am glad to finally know the answer to that question. Each time I would read a book and see his name I wondered who that person was.

Hmmm.. Clive must like Leigh Hunt but not Omar Woodson (I don't remember the person's real name, but it was close!).
