Edna St. Vincent Millay (1892-1950) was an American poet and playwright, celebrated for her lyrical, passionate verse. Known for her bold themes of love, feminism, and freedom, she won the Pulitzer Prize for Poetry in 1923. Millay's work is characterized by emotional intensity and innovative use of form. Pelé Cox is a poet, performance artist and film maker. She holds an MA in creative writing from the University of East Anglia, under the tutelage of Andrew Motion (then Poet Laureate). She has been Poet in Residence at Tate Modern, the Royal Academy of Arts, Keats-Shelley House and the British School at Rome, and is a visiting tutor at the University of Westminster, London. Her verse "Cento" appears as a frieze on the four walls of Building 7 at Chelsea Barracks, London.
