About Author
Dylan Thomas was born in Swansea in 1914. He was the author of some of Britain's best-loved poems including 'Do not go gentle into that good night' and 'And death shall have no dominion', as well as the radio play Under Milk Wood. Although undistinguished at school Thomas began writing and publishing poetry as a teenager. After moving from Swansea to London in 1934 he published 18 Poems, his first volume of verse. It was critically acclaimed and Thomas's reputation grew, both as a poet and as an exuberant personality. In 1937 he married Caitlin Macnamara and they moved to Laugharne, Wales, the town that would become the inspiration for the setting of Under Milk Wood. During the Second World War, Thomas was declared unfit for service and stayed in London, working as a scriptwriter and broadcaster for Strand Films and the BBC. He also continued to write collections of poetry and short stories as well as touring in the US. In October 1953 he returned for a fourth visit to America despite visibly poor health. He had spent much of that year revising Under Milk Wood but he died in New York before the BBC could record it. The first broadcast came two months later in January 1954 and starred Richard Burton. Dylan Thomas is buried in Laugharne.
