An American Negro poet who was active during the 1920's in the Harlen-centered Negro Renaissance, Countee Cullen has not received the recognition he deserves. Conservative in his political and social beliefs, Cullen manage to break through racial boundaries in both academic and publishing circles. He graduated from De Witt Clinton High School in New York City with top honors and continued on to New York University, where in his last year his first book, Color, was published. Cullen then went to Harvard. His poetry frequently appeared in the top magazines of the day.
