Autorenporträt
Lindley Williams Hubbell (1901-1994) was born in Hartford, Connecticut, and was privately educated. From 1925 he worked as a reference librarian in the Map Room of the New York Public Library. His first two books, Dark Pavilion (1927) and The Tracing of a Portal (1931) were published by Yale University Press, the first of them receiving a Yale Younger Poets Award. He published two more books with major publishers in the U.S. before moving to Japan in 1953, where he taught at Dōshisha University in Kyoto, continued to write and to publish new poetry (with the Ikuta Press in Kobe), and became an aficionado of both nō theatre and Japanese pop music. He took Japanese citizenship (with the name Hayashi Shūseki) in 1960, and remained in Japan for the rest of his life.
