J. Gordon Coogler (1865-1901) from South Carolina was famous for his naively bad poetry. After his death H.L. Mencken used him as a supposedly typical example of southern backwardness in the arts. In the 1980s his name was placed on an annual award for "worst book of the year." It's not certain, but J. Gordon Coogler may have been named in honor of a Confederate general, John Brown Gordon.
