Choose another writer in this calendar: by name: A B C D ... Z by birthday from the calendar Credits and feedback Marianne (Craig) Moore (1887-1972) Pulitzer Prize-winning American poet, highly esteemed by her fellow colleagues. Moore's often-quoted advice in 'Poetry' was that poets should present for inspection "imaginary gardens with real toads in them". Characteristic for her works is cryptic zigzag logic, eccentric rhythms, and ironic wit. Her best-known poems feature animals and are written in precise, clear language. Moore was a friend to many of the greatest artists and writers of the 20th century, such as T.S. Eliot, Ezra Pound, E.E. Cummings, and Allen Ginsberg. I, too, dislike it: there are things that are important beyond all this fiddle. Reading it, however, with a perfect contempt for it, one discovers in it after all, a place for the genuine. (from 'Poetry', 1921) Marianne Moore was born near St. Louis, Missouri, as the daughter of an engineer-inventor. Moore was brought up with her brother in the home of her grandfather, the Reverend John R. Warner, the pastor of Kirkwood Presbyterian Church. Her father, John Milton Moore, suffered a mental breakdown before Moore's birth and was committed to a psychiatric hospital; she never met him. In 1896 the family moved to Carlisle, Pennsylvania, where Moore's mother, Mary Warner, worked as a teacher at the Metzger Institute, a private girls's school. "The passion for setting people right is in itself an afflictive disease. Distaste which takes no credit to itself is best."

Moore, Marianne Marianne Moore (left) with Langston Hughes, 1952 AP/Wide World Photos (1887-1972), poet Marianne Craig Moore was born on November 15, 1887, in St. Louis, Missouri. She graduated in 1909 from Bryn Mawr College in Pennsylvania. Her first published work appeared in 1915 in the Egoist and in Harriet Monroe's Poetry magazine. After 1919, living in Brooklyn, New York, with her mother, Moore devoted herself to writing, contributing poetry and criticism to many journals in the United States and England. In 1921 her first book, Poems, was published in London by Hilda Doolittle and Winifred Ellerman (byname Bryher). Her first American volume was titled Observations (1924). These initial collections exhibited Moore's conciseness and her ability to create a mosaic of juxtaposed images that lead unerringly to a conclusion that, at its best, is both surprising and inevitable. They contain some of her best-known poems, including "To a Steam Roller," "The Fish," "When I Buy Pictures," "Peter," "The Labors of Hercules," and "Poetry." The last named is the source of her often-quoted admonition that poets should present imaginary gardens with real toads in them.

Moore, Marianne American poet, noted for using the stanza as the basic unit of her poetry. Born in St. Louis, Missouri, Moore was educated at Bryn Mawr College. From 1925 to 1929 she edited the literary magazine The Dial. She was associated at first with the imagist movement (see Imagism), but she later developed her own rhyme patterns and verse forms using the arrangement of syllables, rather than conventional stress patterns, as the base for her meter (see Versification). In her poetry Moore embedded crystalline references to a vast array of subjects. She was, for example, an ardent baseball fan, especially of the Brooklyn Dodgers team, and frequently celebrated this interest in her verse. Her work is descriptive and reflective, rather than lyric or dramatic, and it often gives minutely detailed descriptions of landscapes, animals, or objects. Moore's first collection of verse was Poems (1921). This book was followed by Observations (1924), Selected Poems of Marianne Moore (1935, with an introduction by the poet T. S. Eliot), The Pangolin and Other Verse (1936), What Are Years? (1941), Nevertheless (1944), Collected Poems (1951; Pulitzer Prize and National Book Award, 1952), Like a Bulwark (1956), O to Be a Dragon (1959), The Arctic Ox (1964), and Tell Me, Tell Me (1966). Moore's translation of Fables by the French author Jean de la Fontaine appeared in 1954, and Predilections (a book on her favorite writers) appeared in 1955. A Marianne Moore Reader was published in 1961, and The Complete Poems of Marianne Moore was published in 1967.

Boiling point: Malevolence that cannot be controlled; mob violence; buying a dog to make life pleasant, then turning it loose without its collar and going south in winter or north in summer. Personal panacea: God and family. The terrible temptation: To subdue and not persevere.
