Walt Whitman, born in New York in 1819, was one of America's unusual literary
figures. An individualist, he rambled through the countryside seeing people and places, and
making them his own. His experiences in earning a living were varied: at times he was a
printer, a teacher, a carpenter, a nurse and a newspaper editor. He was a big-hearted man,
open and accepting. He spent a lot of his time caring for the wounded during the Civil War.
2

Though he lived in the city, he often spent time in the country, developing his strong sense
of nature, which carried through his poems. In 1855, he collected the verses he had written,
and published them in one thin volume, "Leaves of Grass", a book which he revised and was
generally ignored by other poets, probably because his verse forms were not traditional. He
had felt that it was necessary to achieve a new poetic form in order to communicate his
views. His reputation didn't grow until after his death, and it reached a high point in the
1920s. Since then, Whitman's style has greatly influenced modern poets.
