Mary Oliver (1935–2019) was an American poet, teacher, speaker, editor, and prose writer who won the National Book Award and the Pulitzer Prize, as well as many other honors. Her prolific work is both inspired by and deeply celebratory of nature and how it intersects with the limits of the human world.
