Eileen Hall was an American poet.
[1] She married Dr Michael Lake[2] and her first collection - The Fountain and the Bough (1938) - is dedicated to him.
Hall was born in Antigua; her father's family was from Oxford and her mother's family was part French and part Irish, the French side having been in the West Indies since the mid seventeenth century.
[3] Hall travelled to Paris with her friend the painter Janice Biala.
Hall's friend Willard Trask invited both women to one of Ford Madox Ford's regular Thursday afternoon salons.
