Life and career
Rainer was born in New York and grew up in the Tribeca neighborhood. Her father was a tailor. She was young when the executions of Nicola Sacco and Bartolomeo Vanzetti had taken place, which had influenced her ideologies. Rainer had already become a pacifist and anarchist by the time she was a teenager. In 1938, she had begun writing poetry and prose and won a scholarship to study English Literature at Hunter College. In 1944, her first published work, a review, was in the magazine Politics.[1]
