      Born during World War II in Germany, Rolf Dieter Brinkmann was a prolific poet, novelist, and translator whose work reflects a deep connection to contemporary American poetry, particularly the Beat and New York School movements. His literary contributions include nine poetry collections and several short story collections, alongside notable translations of American poets like Frank O'Hara and Ted Berrigan. Brinkmann's influential collection, Westwärts 1 & 2, was released posthumously and earned him the prestigious Petrarca Prize shortly after his tragic death in 1975.
