[1892-1950]  "What Byron was to 19th century England, [she] was to 20th century America: the embodiment of romance and passion.  The most famous poet of her day and the first woman to win the Pulitzer Prize for verse, she was also, to the men who loved her, danger."  From the biography, Savage Beauty by Nancy Milford,  published by Random House, September, 2001.

I will be the gladdest thing
   Under the sun!
I will touch a hundred flowers
   And not pick one.
~Edna St. Vincent Millay
