释义 |
Eileen Hall was an American poet. She was a friend of Ford Madox Ford's.[1] She married Dr Michael Lake[2] and her first collection - The Fountain and the Bough (1938) - is dedicated to him. After the marriage she was also known as Eileen Lake and Eileen Hall Lake. Hall was born in Antigua; her father's family was from Oxford and her mother's family was part French and part Irish, the French side having been in the West Indies since the mid seventeenth century.[3] Hall travelled to Paris with her friend the painter Janice Biala. Hall's friend Willard Trask invited both women to one of Ford Madox Ford's regular Thursday afternoon salons.[4] Ford and Biala fell in love, and stayed together until Ford's death in 1939.[5] Works
