Bogan, Louise, 1897-1970
Biographical History for: Bogan Papers
Biographical Note Louise Bogan was born in Livermore Falls, Maine, in 1897. She attended Boston Girls' Latin School and, for one year, Boston University. She married Kurt Alexander in 1916 and was widowed in 1920. In 1925, she married her second husband, the poet Raymond Holden, whom she divorced in 1937. Her poems were published in the New Republic, the Nation, Poetry: A Magazine of Verse, Scribner's and Atlantic Monthly. For thirty-eight years, she reviewed poetry for The New Yorker. Because Bogan was reclusive and disliked talking about herself, details regarding her private life are scarce. She wrote most of her poetry in the earlier half of her life when she published Body of This Death (1923), Dark Summer (1929) and The Sleeping Fury (1937). She published volumes of her collected verse in 1941 and 1954, and finally The Blue Estuaries: Poems 1923-1968, an overview of her life's work in poetry. She died in New York City in 1970.
Scope and Contents of the Collection The collection consists of correspondence, manuscript drafts of both published and unpublished poems, prose, short stories, and translations, lectures, teaching notes, news clippings, journals and notebooks documenting Bogan's career as poet, translator, critic, teacher and editor from 1930 until her death in 1970. Documentation of her personal affairs includes family items, diaries, awards and honors, contracts with publishers, copyrights, financial records, photographs, and material relating to her death and estate.

Section 2: CORRESPONDENCE
SECTION 2, CORRESPONDENCE, makes up the nearly half of the collection and consists primarily of letters received by Bogan. This section is divided into three sub-sections: A. Incoming Personal Correspondence, which is divided into two parts:A1. Family to Louise BoganA2. Others to Louise BoganB. Business CorrespondenceC. Outgoing Correspondence, which is divided into two parts:C1. Louise Bogan to familyC2. Louise Bogan to others The names of all correspondents are listed under personal correspondence. If the letters of a correspondent are purely personal, the total number of letters will follow his or her name. If the letters of a correspondent are purely business, his or her name will be followed by the location of the letters, with the number of letters following that. If the letters of a correspondent are both business and personal, his or her name will be followed by the total number of letters, then the other location (i.e., letters are to be found in both folder locations - some in personal, some in business). The reason for this is to retain the congruency of the business correspondence since she often corresponded with several of a given firm at the same time. The letters from Bogan to others are listed alphabetically and are cross-referenced in the personal correspondence.
