Lorine

Lorine Pruette (1896 – 1976) was an American feminist, psychologist, and writer.

Lorine Niedecker (pronounced "Needecker") (1903 – 1970) was an American poet. Niedecker's poetry is known for its spareness, its focus on the natural landscapes of Wisconsin and the Upper Midwest (particularly waterscapes), its philosophical materialism, its mise-en-page experimentation, and its surrealism. She is regarded as a major figure in the history of American regional poetry, the Objectivist poetic movement, and the mid-20th-century American poetic avant-garde.
