Whitman supported himself as a journalist, editor, typesetter and schoolteacher, although he was already writing poetry as a teen-ager. His life experiences included service as a volunteer nurse at a military hospital during the Civil War. This image is a detail from a Matthew Brady photograph, taken around 1860 when Whitman was in his early forties. Wiki ... |
