 | | Robert Bly |
Robert Bly was born in western Minnesota in 1926 to parents of
Norwegian stock. He enlisted in the Navy in 1944 and spent two years
there. After one year at St. Olaf College in Minnesota, he transferred
to Harvard and thereby joined the famous group of writers who were
undergraduates at that time, which included Donald Hall, Adrienne Rich,
Kenneth Koch, John Ashbery, Harold Brodky, George Plimpton, and John
Hawkes. He graduated in 1950 and spent the next few years in New York
living, as they say, hand to mouth.
