Auden was born in 1907 in York, England. In 1930, he released his first book of poems, which was followed by a dozen volumes of shorter and longer poems. He wrote books about his journeys to Iceland (with Louis MacNeice) and wartime China (with Christopher Isherwood) and worked on three plays with Christopher Isherwood. He moved to New York in 1939 and became an American citizen in 1946. He wrote opera libretti for Igor Stravinsky, Hans Werner Henze, and Nicolas Nabokov alongside his colleague Chester Kallman.
Auden returned to Oxford from his winter residence in New York in 1972. In 1973, he died in Vienna.
