Biographical History

American poet, of Brooklyn, N.Y.

From the description of Anna Hempstead Branch letter to Edith A. Watson, 1891 Dec. (New London County Historical Society). WorldCat record id: 123945395

Branch was born on March 18, 1875 in New London, Conn. and lived in a house occupied by her grandmother's family since 1640 known as Hempstead House. She was educated at Smith College (1897) and the American Academy of Dramatic Arts in New York. While at the Academy she became acquainted with Christodora House, eventually became a resident there and served on its board of directors. The House was to remain her primary home (with some exceptions) until her death. She wrote poetry, was active in social work and founded and directed the Poets' Guild. She died in 1937 in the home of her birth.
