| Elizabeth Bartlett (b. 1924) grew up in Deal, Kent. Her childhood was one of hardship and although she gained a grammar school scholarship she left education at fifteen. At nineteen she married and had one son. She worked for a long time in the health service, as a doctor's receptionist, and for the Home Care Service, an environment which provided her with material for some of her most moving poems. She has published eight collections including in 1995 the acclaimed retrospective Two Women Dancing: New & Selected Poems which was a Poetry Book Society Recommendation.
