Kimon Friar
Kimon Friar (1911–May 25, 1993) was a Greek-American poet and translator of Greek poetry.
==Youth and education==
Friar was born in 1911 in Imrali, Ottoman Empire, to an American father and a Greek mother. In 1915, the family moved to the United States and Friar became an American citizen in 1920. As a child, Friar had problems with the English language, and so he spent his time on artistic efforts. At a young age, despite his trouble with English, Friar discovered poetry and later he became interested in drama. After reading ''Ode on a Grecian Urn'' by John Keats, Friar became fascinated with the energy of the English language and he determined to master it.
Friar was educated at a number of institutions, including the Chicago Art Institute, the Yale School of Drama, the University of Iowa, and University of Wisconsin–Madison where he received his bachelor's degree with honors in 1935. He went on to University of Michigan for his master's degree in 1940, and he won the Avery Hopwood Major Award for ''Yeats: A Vision''.
