Richard V. Allen, who served as national security adviser under President Reagan, experienced a controversial and brief tenure, resigning less than a year later amid various allegations.
Mr. Allen's career included advising Richard Nixon and being accused of soliciting funds for political gain, reflecting the often contentious intersection of politics and business.
His resignation from Reagan's administration highlighted the difficulties he faced, stepping down after allegations of leveraging his past political influence for personal contracts, which he denied.
Despite controversies that muted his voice in foreign policy, Mr. Allen was a politically influential figure, deeply involved in Cold War strategies and international relations.
