(5 points) Ogden Nash was a poet, storyteller, humorist, and philosopher. Born in Rye, New York, and raised in Savannah, Georgia, he tried but failed to adapt himself to the academic and later the business world. After attending Harvard University briefly, he became a mail clerk on Wall Street, later advancing to bond salesman. His first job as a writer was to produce advertising copy for streetcar cards. Then, in 1925, he joined the advertising department of Doubleday Page and Company, one of the largest publishing house in New York. Later, as a member of the editorial staff of “The New Yorker” magazine, he began writing short poems. His verses are filled with humor and wry wit as well as the unexpected or improbable rhymes that have come to characterize them. One of his most famous is a two-line verse titled “reflections on Ice-Breaking” in which he offers the following advice to young lovers: “Candy is candy, but liquor is quicker”. Beginning in 1931, and extending over the next four decades. Nash produced nineteen books of poetry. During the same time period, he was a favorite contributor to many leading magazines, and his name became a household world.
