Who was Bo Yang?

Boyang, also sometimes erroneously called Bai Yang, was a Chinese writer based in Taiwan. His pen name is found in most sources as "Boyang," although this is often misconstrued in romanisation as the personal name "Bo Yang." According to his own memoir, the exact date of his birthday was unknown even to himself. He later adopted the date of his imprisonment in 1968 as his birthday.
