She wrote "Tell Me a Riddle," 1962 which won an O'Henry Award. I could not live by literature if only to begin with, because of the slow maturing of my work and its special character. And when is there time to remember, to sift, to weigh, to estimate, to total? I know that I haven't powers enough to divide myself into one who earns and one who creates. Time granted does not necessarily coincide with time that can be most fully used. There are worse words than cuss words, there are words that hurt.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Contact: Dann Hayes, Director of Media Relations, April 17, 2001 Noted Award-Winning author, Tillie Olsen, Noun Speaker GRINNELL, Iowa - On Tuesday, April 24 and Wednesday, April 25, noted award-winning author, Tillie Olsen, will visit the Grinnell College campus as the final Noun Program in Women's Studies speaker for the 2000-2001 academic year. At 7:30 p.m. on Tuesday, Olsen will speak on "Tillie Olsen Reminiscing and Reading from her Various Works" in the Forum South Lounge, Grinnell College. There will be a reception and a book signing following the event. On Wednesday at 4:15 p.m., there will be a "Read-In, in Honor of Tillie Olsen," with members of the Grinnell College campus community reading from selected works. The author of the highly praised book "Tell Me a Riddle, Silences, and Yonnondio," Olsen, 89, is a Nebraska native, born in 1912, who began writing in the 1930s with her first short story, "The Iron Throat" and the poem "I Want You Women Up North to Know" (Partisan Review, 1934). As a child, she accompanied her father to several midwest strike actions in the company of Eugene Debs and Big Bill Haywood. The necessity of raising and supporting four children through "everyday jobs" silenced her for 20 years. Self-taught, Olsen has taught, or been a writer-in-residence, at Amherst College, Amherst, Mass; Stanford University, Stanford, Calif.; Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Cambridge, Mass.; and Kenyon College, Gambier, Ohio.

Tillie Olsen Major Issues Author Links Essay Questions Major Issues Tillie Olsen has explored inter-generational relationships, especially between mothers and daughters, through both literary works and photographs. Feminist and Marxist critics have shown interest in Olsen’s presentation of the economic and sexist obstacles to personal fulfillment. Olsen’s major themes, scholars note, include: unrealized dreams; the physical and psychological toll of the burdens placed on women; and financial and personal desperation. Critics praise Olsen’s commitment to feminism and social activism, evident in both her writing and her life. Her contribution to feminist literary studies, especially her promotion of non-conventional forms of women’s writing (such as diaries and notebooks) has also been recognized.

Chapter 1: Parents and Children Tillie Olsen Tillie Olsen Olsen was born in 1912 or 1913 in Nebraska to Russian Jewish parents who came to America after the failed revolution of 1905. Like her parents, Olsen was a committed Socialist working for social change. Upon leaving school in the eleventh grade, Olsen worked as an unskilled laborer until her first child was born in 1931. In the following year she moved to San Francisco where she became a professional writer. Now recognized as a founder of the Women's Movement, she continues to fight for women's rights and other progressive causes. For more on the history of feminism in America, see the Cline Library's "Resources for Women's Studies" page . "I Stand Here Ironing" appeared in Olsen's collection of short stories, Tell Me a Riddle (1961). Set in the Great Depression, the story presents a powerful, first-person account of the difficulties working-class women faced as both parents and laborers. For links to resources on the Depression, see "The Great Depression" page . Olsen has also produced a novel
