Biografia Adrienne Rich

Adrienne Cecile Rich is an American poet, essayist and feminist. She has been called "one of the most widely read and influential poets of the second half of the 20t century

Adrienne Rich was born in Baltimore, Maryland on May 16, 1929. Her father, Arnold Rice Rich, was a professor of medicine at Johns Hopkins Medical School. Her mother, Helen Jones Rich, studied musical composition and was a concert pianist but after becoming a wife and mother, she focused her life entirely on her husband and two daughters. Adrienne Rich's early poetic influence stemmed from her father who encouraged her to not only read but also to write her own poetry. Her interest in literature was sparked within her father's library where she read the work of writers such as Matthew Arnold, William Blake, Thomas Carlyle, John Keats, Dante Gabriel Rossetti, and Alfred, Lord Tennyson. Adrienne Rich and her younger sister were home schooled by their mother until Adrienne began public education in the fourth grade.

Rich attended Radcliffe College. During her college education she focused primarily on poetry, which was taught to her by male professors. In 1951, her last year at Radcliffe College, Rich's first collection of poetry, A Change of World, was selected by W.H. Auden for the Yale Series of Younger Poets Award. The contest judge for that year, poet W. H. Auden, wrote an introduction to this volume. Her collection was highly influenced by the works of male poets whom she studied. Adrienne Rich was well respected as a rising poet and acknowledged for her modesty and respect of elders. Following her graduation, Rich received the Guggenheim, which allowed her to travel across Europe, including England between 1952-1953.
