About the Author

Works, notablyDiving into the Wreck(1973), of American poet and essayistAdrienne Richchampion such causes as pacifism, feminism, and civil rights for gays and lesbians.A mother bore Adrienne Cecile Rich, a feminist, to a middle-class family with parents, who educated her until she entered public school in the fourth grade. She graduated Phi Beta Kappa from Radcliffe college in 1951, the same year of her first book of poems,A Change of World. That volume, chosen by W. H. Auden for the Yale Series of Younger Poets Award, and her next,The Diamond Cutters and Other Poems(1955), earned her a reputation as an elegant, controlled stylist.In the 1960s, however, Rich began a dramatic shift away from her earlier mode as she took up political and feminist themes and stylistic experimentation in such works asSnapshots of a Daughter-in-Law(1963),The Necessities of Life(1966),Leaflets(1969), andThe Will to Change(1971). InDiving into the Wreck(1973) andThe Dream of a Common Language(1978), she continued to experiment with form and to deal with the experiences and aspirations of women from a feminist perspective.In addition to her poetry, Rich has published many essays on poetry, feminism, motherhood, and lesbianism. Her recent collections includeAn Atlas of the Difficult World(1991) andDark Fields of the Republic: Poems 1991–1995(1995).
