Author Description
Thomas Hood was an English poet, author and humourist, best known for poems such as
The Bridge of Sighs
and
The Song of the Shirt
. Hood wrote regularly for
The London Magazine
, the
Athenaeum
, and
Punch
. He later published a magazine largely consisting of his own works. Hood, never robust, lapsed into invalidism by the age of 41 and died at the age of 45. William Michael Rossetti in 1903 called him "the finest English poet" between the generations of Shelley and Tennyson. Hood was the father of playwright and humorist Tom Hood (1835 – 1874).
