Description
Thomas Stearns Eliot AKA TS Eliot
(26 September 1888 – 4 January 1965),
usually known as T. S. Eliot, was an essayist, publisher,
playwright, literary and social critic, and "one of the twentieth century's major poets".
He was born in St. Louis, Missouri, to the old Yankee Eliot family descended from Andrew Eliot,
who migrated to Boston, Massachusetts from East Coker, England in the 1660s.
He immigrated to England in 1914 (at age 25), settling, working and marrying there.
He was eventually naturalised as a British subject in 1927 at age 39,
renouncing his American citizenship.
Eliot attracted widespread attention for his poem The Love Song of J. Alfred Prufrock (1915),
which is seen as a masterpiece of the Modernist movement.
It was followed by some of the best-known poems in the English language,
including The Waste Land (1922), The Hollow Men (1925), Ash Wednesday (1930),
and Four Quartets (1945).[3] He is also known for his seven plays,
particularly Murder in the Cathedral (1935). He was awarded the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1948,
"for his outstanding, pioneer contribution to present-day poetry."
