Historique
David Ignatow is a poet who was born in Brooklyn, New York, and wrote much about the urban experience. He became a professor teaching at the University of Kentucky, University of Kansas, and later returning to the northeast and Columbia University. Not long before going to Columbia, he was at Vassar College. This was where he was in contact with Merton about poems for «Monks Pond». He also taught a student from Vassar with whom Merton had been corresponding, Nancy Fly Bredenberg.
