             Biographical/Historical note 
             Elizabeth Madox Roberts (1881-1941) was born in Perryville, Kentucky and raised in Springfield. She enrolled at the State College of Kentucky (now the University of Kentucky) but her chronic respiratory illnesses lead to her withdrawing before the end of her first semester. Roberts worked as an elementary school teacher in Springfield, Kentucky until her relocation to Colorado in 1910. It was here Roberts published her first volume of poetry. In 1916, she was accepted to the State College of Kentucky but never enrolled, instead choosing to study writing at University of Chicago. Roberts published verse in both 
                 Poetry  and 
                 Atlantic Monthly  after graduation. In 1926, her poetry collection 
                 The Time of Man  was published to international acclaim. Roberts would go on to publish nine more collections and novels before her declining health caused by Hodgkin's disease. She died at her Orlando, Florida home in 1941 and was buried in Springfield, Kentucky.
