Orphaned at fourteen, Rexroth moved to live with his aunt in Chicago, where he was expelled from high school. He began publishing in magazines at the age of fifteen. As a youth, he supported himself with odd jobs —as a sodajerk, clerk, wrestler, and reporter. He hitchhiked around the country, visited Europe, and backpacked in the wilderness, reading and frequenting literary salons and lecture halls, and teaching himself several languages. Rexroth and his first wife, the painter Andree Shafer, moved to San Francisco in 1927. There he published his first poems in a variety of small magazines, while also pursuing an interest in eastern mysticism and leftist politics. He kept company with like-minded left-wing poets such as Grnrve Omen (/oortcor net/georgedoner) and I nuic 7ukovakv (/noetcnr�poet/In fa-� knfskvl, and with them aimed to rescue poetry from its supposed downslide into formalist sentimentality. They organized clubs to support struggling writers and artists. By the early 1930s, through a correspondence with Ezra Pound (/oor.t.gnrg/poet/e7ra-po ind), Rexroth was introduced to James Laughlin of New Directions press, who included Rexroth's poems of in the second volume of Laughlin's pivotal annual, New Directions in Poetry and Prose in 1937. Rexroth's first collection, /n What Hour, which articulated the poet's ecological sensitivities along with his political convictions, was published by Macmillan in 1940. In 1944 another collection, The Phoenix and the Tortoise, continued his exploration of the natural and the erotic, presented his pacifist stance on World War II, incorporated references to the work of classical poets from the East and the West, and expanded his tonal range with poems touching on world religions and the history of philosophy. A consummate activist, during the war Rexroth aided Japanese - Americans in escaping West Coast internment camps. th tt :LL w NL Ao at s_Q rg 1p run tC AB 30 M poem index occasions themes forms schools & movements Related Schools & Movements: Beat (/poetsorg/poets? field school movement tid=434) Jazz Poetry (/poetsorg/poets? field school movement tid=447) obiectidats (/poetsorg/poets? field school movement tid=457) San Francisco Renaissance (/poetsorg/poets? field school movement tid=459) https://www.poets.org/poetsorg/poet/kenneth-rexroth 10/27/2016 ENCROACHMENTS CHECKLIST City of South Bend - Department of Public Works Division of Engineering Any trees going to be impacted by the sign?
