- Abstract
-
Lola Ridge was an American poet born in Ireland and raised in Australia. Her published works include Ghetto and Other Poems (1918); Red Flag (1927); Firehead (1929); and Dance of Fire (1935). Despite frequent ill health, she was associated with Harold Loeb and others in editing the little magazine Broom (1921-24), and received a Guggenheim Fellowship in 1934.
The nine letters contain thanks for positive reviews of Ridge's work by Jones, and praise of Evelyn Scott's novels, which Ridge hoped Jones would review. The 1930 letter solicits Jones's help for Leon Srabian Hearld, a young Armenian writer.
