	About Sharon Olds
		Olds describes the completion of her doctorate as a transitional moment in her life: standing on the steps of the library at Columbia University, she vowed to become a poet, even if it meant giving up everything she had learned.
		To her admirers, Olds is a poet of direct physicality and painful honesty, depicting aspects of family life and of personal relationships that have rarely been described in such intimate or graphic terms.
		Olds has learned, since the calculated shocks of her first book, Satan Says (1980), to orchestrate her themes, as she does successfully in her two most recent books, finding variations on themes that serve to conceal to some extent the recapitulations.

		Olds herself arrives a few minutes late, looking slightly harried, and apologizes profusely while pulling two paper cups of tea from a brown bag -- one for herself, one for a visitor.

	Ransom E. Olds Biography \| Encyclopedia of World Biography
		Two older Olds brothers were many years Ranny's senior, and had by then struck out on their own, but the third son, Wallace, joined his father in the family business, P. Olds and Son; while still in school Ransom Olds also began working at the shop, which both manufactured and repaired steam engines.
		Olds had learned a great deal from observing the ups and downs of his father's business ventures, and soon proved to be an adept third manager from the launch of P. Olds and Son in 1880.
		Olds would later say that all the plans and patterns had been destroyed in the fire (which was not true), and that only one model had been saved by a brave worker--his curved-dash runabout (actually, this and several other prototypes emerged safely from a fireproof vault).

	Introduction to Sharon Olds
		The motif of Olds’ speaker’s brutal relationships becomes much stronger as her works progress, perhaps this is Olds’ response to her father’s protracted death.
		Olds’ latest books are dominated by her father, indeed, The Father is based entirely on her attempt to cope with his death.
		In her latest book, The Wellspring, Olds’ speaker continues her unabashed abhorrence of her father, but it is interspersed with other, more vital poems that tell of her family—especially her children—and she seems to have taken a large step toward conciliating her past.
