Adrienne Rich, born in Baltimore in 1929, has said that the trajectory of her work has been to find the "voice of the individual speaking not just to herself, or to his beloved friend, but to and from a collective, social realm." 

Ms. Rich has published more than 16 volumes of poetry, including Midnight Salvage, Dark Fields of the Republic, and An Atlas of the Difficult World. She has been honored with a MacArthur Fellowship, the National Book Award, and the Tanning Award, as well as a Lannan Literary Award for Lifetime Achievement in 1999.
