Tillie Olsen Tillie Olsen was born in Omaha, Nebraska, in 1912. The daughter of Russian immigrants, she was raised in a working class, socialist environment. Growing up during the Depression she did not go to college, but early on got caught up in the struggle for survival at whatever jobs she could find. Her novel about the Depression, Yonnondio was begun when she was 19. A portion of the manuscript appeared in 1934 in the second issue of The Partisan Review . In her biography for the magazine, she listed her occupations as tie presser, hack writer, model, housemaid, ice cream packer and book clerk. The novel was never finished and thought irretrievably lost. However, remnants were found among some old papers, pieced together and published in book form in 1973. She is the author of the short story collection, Tell Me A Riddle [1962], the novel Yonnondio: From the Thirties [1994], a book of essays, Silences [1978]. She is the editor of Mothers and Daughter: That special quality [] and Mother to Daughter Daughter to Mother A Daybook and Reader The conflict between the demands of daily existence and the fulfillment of human potential is a theme that permeates Tillie Olsen's work. For twenty years, she was "silenced" as a writer while working to earn a living and single-handedly raising four daughters. "These are not natural silences, that necessary time for renewal," she said. "They are the unnatural thwarting of what struggles to come into being but cannot."

Tillie Olsen (1913 - ) Tillie Lerner Olsen was born in Nebraska in 1913 of Jewish immigrants, political refugees who fled Russia following their activities in Russian revolution. Their ideals began the development of her writing. At age 16 Olsen left school and became active in the Young Socialist League. At 18 she joined the Young Communist League, later spending a month in prison for distributing leaflets to packinghouse workers. In 1932, at 19, Olsen began to write Yonnondio , completing the first three chapters. After “The Iron Throat,” the first chapter of Yonnondio appeared in the Partisan Review , in 1934, Random House offered her a contract for providing a chapter of Yonnondio each month. However, the demands of organizing farm workers combined with motherhood and political activism forced her to end the contract. Yonnondio , her only novel, was finally published in 1974, still incomplete. In the meantime, she continued writing, and in 1953 enrolled at San Francisco State. Her first piece “I Stand Here Ironing” won a Stanford University Creative Writing Fellowship. In 1959 A Ford Foundation grant allowed her to finish and publish Tell Me a Riddle Silences was published in1978, and “Requa I” in 1971.

Tillie Olsen
Tillie Olsen (b. 1913) was born in Omaha, Nebraska, the daughter of political refugees from the Russian Czarist repression after the revolution of 1905. At the age of sixteen Olsen dropped out of high school to help support her family during the Depression. At age nineteen she began her first novel, Yonnondio. Four chapters of this book about a poverty-stricken working class family were completed in the next four years, during which time she married, gave birth to her first child, and was left with the baby by her husband because, as she later wrote in her autobiographical story "I Stand Here Ironing" he "could no longer endure sharing want" with them. In 1934 a section of the first chapter of her novel was published in The Partisan Review, but she abandoned the unfinished book in 1937. The year before she had married Jack Olsen, with whom she had three more children; raising the children and working for political causes took up all her time. In the 1940s she was a factory worker; in the 1950s, a secretary and not until 1953, when her youngest daughter started school, could she begin writing again. That year Olsen enrolled in a class in fiction writing at San Francisco State College. She was awarded a Stanford University creative writing fellowship for 1955 and 1956. During the 1950s she wrote the four stories collected in Tell Me a Riddle, which established her reputation when the book was published as a paperback in 1961.

Tillie Olsen (1912(13?)- )
Tillie Lerner was born in either 1912 or 1913 in Omaha, Nebraska. (Her exact birthdate and year remain unknown, as her birth certificate was lost.) Her parents were political refugees from Russia. They fled from Czarist oppression after the 1905 revolution, and were forced to settle for low-wage jobs and a modest life in America. A bright child, Lerner attended Omaha Central High School, a school well-known for academic rigor. She left school without completing her studies, in order to work various low-wage jobs. This decision was partially based on her family's need and her own failure in a class. She would continue to read avidly in public libraries wherever she moved. Throughout the Great Depression she worked as a tie presser, a meat trimmer, a domestic worker and a waitress. At the age of nineteen, Lerner began her only novel, Yonnondio. The title is taken from a Walt Whitman poem and means, "a lament for the lost." It bears resemblance to the another novel about poverty-stricken workers in the 1930s, John Steinbeck's The Grapes of Wrath. Lerner also claims that the book was heavily influenced by an unsigned novella published in an 1861 issue of The Atlantic Monthly, titled "Life in the Iron Mills." It was one of the few pieces of literature, she claimed, that focused on the lives of the proletariat and the struggles of labor as a subject for literature. It was not until the 1950s that she would discover it was written by a woman, Rebecca Harding Davis.

Tillie Olsen's Life Constance Coiner T When Olsen was 11 or 12, Ida Lerner wrote the following letter to her English instructor: 2512 Caldwell Street
Omaha, Nebraska
December 10, 1924
Dear Teacher: I am glad to study with ardor but the children wont let me, they go to bed late so it makes me tired, and I cant do my lessons. It is after ten o'clock my head dont work it likes to have rest. But I am in a sad mood I am sitting in the warm house and feel painfull that winter claps in to my heart. I see the old destroyed houses of the people from the old country. I hear the wind blow through them with the disgusting cry why the poor creatures ignore him, dont protest against him, that souless wind dont no, that they are helpless have no material to repair the houses and no clothes to cover up their bodies, and so the sharp wind echo cry falls on the window, and the windows original sing with silver-ball tears seeing all the poor shivering creatures dressed in rags with frozen fingers and feverish hungry eyes. It is told of the olden days, the people of that time were building a tower, when they were on the point of success for some reason they stopped to understand each other and on account of misunderstanding, their hopes and very lives were buried under the tower they had built. So as a human being who carries responsibility for action I think as a duty to the community we shall try to understand each other. This English class helps us to understand each other, not to feel helpless between our neighbors, serves to get more respect from the people around us. We are human beings trying to understand, we learn about the world, people and our surroundings. This class teaches us to understand each other and brings better order in the every day life of the community.

  • This page lists a number of reference books regarding Tillie Olsen's work. Both critical sources and full text reprints are listed. A great idea if you are planning to write a research paper on Yonnondio or any of Olsen's other works.
  • This link is a reprint of a syllabus Olsen herself used when she taught "The Literature of Poverty, Oppression, Revolution and the Struggle for Freedom" at Amherst College in 1969. This list is fascinating for a number of reasons: it shows the books that Olsen herself read and respected, and it also reflects the reading material of students during the struggles of the late 1960s. The books listed would serve as great secondary sources for a research paper on Olsen's political involvement or narrative polemics.
  • This is a long interview with Tillie Olsen , taken just two years ago. In it, Olsen discusses her desire to write, her struggle to find the time and energy to do so, and her current and past political beliefs.

Career of Tillie Olsen (1912- )
Novelist, short story writer, and feminist critic, Olsen was born in Nebraska in 1912 of Russian Jewish immigrants and attended schools in Omaha through the eleventh grade. Her socialist upbringing, empathy for the underprivileged, and innovative relation to langauge made Olsen both a radical and a modernist. Though Olsen published several widely admired pieces in periodicals during the 1930s, she did not achieve full national prominence until the 1960s with the appearance of her first book, Tell Me a Riddle (1961), a collection of stories notable for its subtle registration of working class America. Also the author of
