Aiken, Conrad1889-1973Born at Savannah, Ga., Aug. 5, 1889. Received the degree of A.B. from Harvard University in 1912 and in August of the same year married Miss Jessie McDonald, of Montreal, Canada. Mr. Aiken’s first volume of poetry, “Earth Triumphant”, was published in 1914, and has been followed by “Turns and Movies”, 1916; “Nocturne of Remembered Spring”, 1917; and “The Charnel Rose”, 1918. Mr. Aiken is a keen and trenchant critic, as well as a poet, and his volume on the modern movement in poetry, “Skepticisms”, is one of the finest and most stimulating contributions to the subject.[Conrad Aiken won the Pulitzer Prize for Poetry in 1930 for “Selected Poems”. — A. L., 1998.]
