[1883-1963] US poet, his spare images and language reflect everyday speech. His epic poem Paterson 1946-58 celebrates his home town in New Jersey. Pictures from Brueghel 1963 won him, posthumously, a Pulitzer prize. His work includes a vast body of prose, and he had a great impact on younger US poets.
