Born in Cambridge, England, Anne Stevenson moved between the United States and the United Kingdom numerous times during the first half of her life. While she considers herself an American, Stevenson qualifies her status: “I belong to an America which no longer really exists.” Since 1962 she lived mainly in the U.K., including Cambridge, Scotland, Oxford, and, most recently, North Wales and Durham. She died in September 2020.
