Born in Amherst, Massachusetts, to a successful family with strong community ties, she lived a mostly introverte
12、d and reclusive life. She spent a short time at Mount Holyoke Female Seminary, a college for upper-class American young women, before returning to her familys house in Amherst.

16、ion of poetry was published in 1890, but was heavily edited.
