Comrade Phan Thai At, also known as Nguyen Xuan Son, alias Hoang Nghi, was born on January 1, 1894 in a peasant family with a tradition of patriotism and revolution in Duong Xuan village, Dang Son commune, now Linh Son commune, Anh Son district, Nghe An province. On September 25, 1929, comrade Phan Thai At was admitted to the Indochina Communist Party and was elected Secretary of Duong Xuan Party Cell, the first Party Cell of Anh Son district. In April 1930, as a delegate of the Central Region Party Committee, comrade Phan Thai At was assigned to work in Quang Ngai, Binh Dinh, and Phu Yen provinces. At the first Congress of the Quang Ngai Provincial Party Committee in June 1930, comrade Phan Thai At was elected Deputy Secretary of the Quang Ngai Provincial Party Committee. On March 6, 1931, comrade Phan Thai At was appointed Secretary of the Quang Ngai Provincial Party Committee. On July 27, 1931, comrade Phan Thai At was arrested by French colonialists at Khanh Van pagoda, Son Tinh district.

On August 26, 1931, at Quang Ngai prison, comrade Phan Thai At was sentenced to death by the French colonialists, but due to public opposition, they had to reduce the sentence to life imprisonment and exile him to Buon Ma Thuot prison. In prison, he still participated in leading the struggles of his fellow political prisoners, so he was exiled to Con Dao by the French colonialists. After the success of the August Revolution in 1945, comrade Phan Thai At was welcomed back to the mainland, and then sent by the Party and State to perform international missions. In 1967, comrade Phan Thai At passed away in Nghe An.
