Waddington, Miriam, 1917-2004 : Miriam Waddington, poet, critic, essayist, educator and translator, was born in Winnipeg in 1917, of Russian-Jewish parents. She attended a secular Yiddish school there before moving with her family to Ottawa where she attended high school. She went on to study at the University of Toronto, receiving her BA in 1939 and a diploma in Social Work in 1942. She continued her studies at the University of Pennsylvania, where she studied under Virginia Robinson and Jessie Taft, and received her MSW in 1949. From 1945 to 1960 she worked for various social agencies in Montreal and taught at McGill University. Waddington and her husband divorced in the early 1960's. She taught English at York University from 1964 to 1986.

In Montreal, she became associated with the First Statement group of poets, including A.M. Klein and Irving Layton. She and her husband, writer and journalist Patrick Waddington, also published with Preview, the group including P.K. Page and F.R. Scott. Waddington's first book of poetry, Green World, was published in 1945, and she later published another twelve collections, including Oxford University Press's Collected Poems. She has also published short stories and was the author of a critical study of A.M. Klein. She published dozens of critical articles and reviews and numerous translations of both prose and poetry from Yiddish. Many of Waddington's poems have been set to music by Canadian and American composers and her work has been translated into Russian, Japanese, Spanish, Romanian, German, Bulgarian, Yiddish, Italian and Chinese.

Waddington's book Driving Home won the J.I. Segal Award in 1972 and she was twice the recipient of Senior Writing Fellowships from the Canada Council. She received honorary degrees from Lakehead University 1975, and York University 1985.
She received the J.I. Segal Award in 1972 for her collection Driving Home. She delivered the E.J. Pratt memorial lecture in St. John's in 1974 and received numerous honourary degrees. Her poem "Jacques Cartier in Toronto" is featured on the back of the Canadian $100 bill (released in 2004). Waddington was made a lifetime member of the League of Canadian Poets.

Miriam Waddington died in 2004.
