JOYCE KILMER, U.S., 1886-1918.

Poet, he wrote "Trees."

From: Anglicanism.

Why: Kilmer was moved to religious fervor after his daughter contracted infantile paralysis. Kilmer's attraction to Roman Catholicism was part of his penchant for things Irish. He often referred to himself as being half-Irish, though his ancestry was English, German, and Scottish.
