Edna St. Vincent Millay

Edna St. Vincent Millay (February 22, 1892 – October 19, 1950) was a Pulitzer Prize-winning poet, playwright, and feminist activist whose writing actively worked to subvert the gender norms of her time and whose life has since served as a prime example of social resistance for other writers and acitivists following in her footsteps. Essentially a rockstar, she traveled the country reading to eager audiences and authored some of the most well-known poetry of the 20th century.
