Born at Dublin, Ireland, but brought up in Sydney, Australia. As a child, lived also in New Zealand, but studied art in Australia. In 1907 she came to the United States and supported herself for three years by writing fiction for the popular magazines. But finding that this work was going to kill her creative ability, she earned her living in a variety of other ways--as organizer, advertisement writer, illustrator, artist's model, factory worker, etc.--while she wrote poems. Her reputation was made by the publication of _The Ghetto_ in 1918. BIBLIOGRAPHY The Ghetto and Other Poems. 1918. Sun-up and Other Poems. 1920. Also in: Others, 1919. STUDIES AND REVIEWS Untermeyer.
