Husband of Joan Robinson, E.A.G. Robinson ‘was a member of the Cambridge ‘circus’ which helped Keynes make The General Theory (1936). He was Keynes’s close and trusted colleague for many years. His editing (with Elizabeth Johnson and Donald Moggridge) of the thirty volumes of Keynes’s Collected Writings secured Keynes’s legacy to future generations’ (ODNB).
