Crossword Genius

Man of balance (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

alan

'man' is the definition.

'of balance' is the wordplay.
'of' indicates a hidden word.
'ALAN' is hidden within 'balance'.

(Other definitions for alan that I've seen before include "Boy" , "A.A. Milne's first name" , "Sir -- Sugar (The Apprentice)" , "English historian/poet" , "- Bennett, English actor, dramatist, writer" .)

I've seen this clue in The Mirror.
