Annie D. Robinson
MARIAN DOUGLAS (Mrs. Annie D. Robinson) is peculiarly a child of New Hampshire, as not only has all her life been spent within sound of the Pemigewasset, but she is indebted to the state for her parents, her father, William, and her mother, Harriet (Kimball) Green, having been natives of Concord, with the history of which town her earlier ancestors were identified. She was born in Plymouth, but since her early childhood has resided in Bristol. As with many other writers of verse, her first published poem appeared when she was fifteen, and from that till now her poems, irregularly published and widely scattered, have filled a place of their own in current literature, being possessed of a certain individual quality, which the New York Evening Post once characterized as “delicious in its artistic simplicity.”
