Ted Hughes

About the artist

Edward James Hughes, known as Ted Hughes (17 August 1930 – 28 October 1998) was an English poet, transcriber and children's writer. Critics routinely rank him as one of the best poets of his generation. Hughes was British Poet Laureate from 1984 until his death. Hughes was married to the American poet Sylvia Plath, from 1956 until her death. She committed suicide in 1963 at the age of 30. His part in the relationship became controversial to some feminists and (particularly) American admirers of Plath.
