| Poet and writer, born in Brooklyn, New York, USA. He studied at the University of Missouri (1910–11), settled in New York City, and earned a law degree from New York University (1915). He worked in publishing much of his life, and is noted for his spare poetry of the objectivist school. A frequent theme in his work was the role of Judaism in his life, as in Poems 1937–75 (1977). |
