F. T. Prince grew up in South Africa and authored ten collections of poetry. His work showed influences of Roy Campbell, Ezra Pound, T.S. Eliot, William Butler Yeats, and Arthur Rimbaud. During World War II, Prince served in the British Army's Intelligence Corps as an interpreter in Italian POW camps in England, an experience that shaped his works.
