Little Smiling Hooks

One of the best known female poets of the 20th century, Sylvia Plath (1932-1963) grew up in Massachusetts. She married the British poet Ted Hughes, and they moved back and forth between London, the English countryside, Boston, and western Massachusetts. During their often volatile marriage, they had two children before he left her for another woman. Plath committed suicide shortly thereafter. BIO After reading the work of Sylvia Plath, Virginia Aronson fell in love with poetry. She wrote a verse play about Plath and fellow poet Anne Sexton that was staged in Lawrence, Kansas. Hundreds of her poems have appeared in literary magazines, and some have been nominated for the Pushcart Prize and Best of the Net. She also writes nonfiction and literary fiction, her books published by Random House, Doubleday, Macmillan, Prentice-Hall, Penguin, and small independent presses in the US, UK, Australia, Canada, and India. Before moving to tropical Florida with her family, she sent many years in Jamaica Plain, the leafy town outside Boston where Sylvia Plath lived as a child.
