From hard scrabble origins on the Plains of North Dakota, to longshoremen
organizing on Manhattan’s West Side docks, to living the life of a Bohemian
poet in Los Angeles and beyond, Thomas McGrath’s literary aspirations took him
far from his humble beginnings.For over six decades, McGrath created poems
based largely on the themes of love, work, and political justice. His love of
the prairie and his early years on a working farm were central to his life.
The virtues of the agrarian community plus the Catholic faith of his family,
shaped his Old West character. He was a political progressive and at times a
member of the Communist Party of America. In the 1950’s, he was brought before
the House Un-American Activities Committee and blacklisted following his
appearance. McGrath was the consummate non-conformist in his life and art. He
refused to submit to the philosophy that politics and poetry must be kept
separate. His epic work, Letter to an Imaginary Friend, is anchored by
progressive politics, political and social theory, his love of family, his
love of love, and, arguably, the greatest layering of language idioms in the
history of American poetry.
