Emily Elizabeth Dickinson was an American poet. Largely unpublished and unknown during her lifetime, her work is now widely regarded as canonical. The Poetry Foundation describes her as having "created in her writing a distinctively elliptical language for expressing what was possible but not yet realized."
Emily Dickinson was born in 1830 in Amherst, Massachusetts, into a prominent family.
Beyond her poetry, she was a dedicated gardener who spent much of her time tending to plants.
Her introverted lifestyle meant that she maintained most of her friendships through written correspondence.
She was known by locals for her distinct habit of wearing white clothing.
In her later years, she became so reclusive that she rarely left her own room.
