Alex Randolph (* May 4th 1922, the United States; † April 27th 2004, Venice/Italy), was a very important author of board games.

It is not that in 1961 qu ' Alex Randolph becomes Auteur of board games. He settles with the Japan where he will reside until 1968. Then it settles definitively in Venice.

Creator of plays like Twixt, Sagaland, Intrigues in Venice, Rasende Roboter and of much of others, Alex Randolph enchanted and enchants always small and large players. Alex Randolph was so known that the editors generally mentioned his name on the boxes of play. He thus strongly took part in the recognition of the trade of Auteur of board games.

That which remains an uncontested Master of the field of the Board game is extinguished little before its 82 years in Venice, its fatherland of election.
