Moore, Marianne Craig (1887–1972), American poet, was editor (1925–9) of the
Dial. Her first volume,
Poems (1921), was followed by
Observations (1924),
Selected Poems (1935),
The Pangolin, and Other Verse (1936), and
Collected Poems (1951). Her tone is characteristically urbane, sophisticated, and conversational, her observations detailed and precise, and her poems are composed for the page with a strong sense of visual effect.
