Life
Hine was born in Burnaby in 1936 and grew up in
New Westminster, British Columbia. He was the adopted son of Robert Fraser and Elsie James Hine.[citation needed] He attended McGill University in Montreal 1954–58. His first chapbook, The Carnal and the Crane, was published as part of Louis Dudek's McGill Poetry Series in 1957.[1]
Hine then went to Europe on a Canada Council scholarship, where he lived for the next three years. He moved to New York in 1962 and to Chicago in 1963, taking a PhD in Comparative Literature at the
MacArthur Fellowship
in 1986.
Hine's work appeared in the New York Review of Books,[4] Harper's,[5] The New Yorker,[6] The Tamarack Review,[7] The Paris Review.[8]
The poet first came out as gay in his 1975 work In & Out, which was initially available only in a privately printed version in limited circulation. The work did not gain general publication until 1989.[9]
Following the death of his partner of more than 30 years, the philosopher Samuel Todes, Hine lived in semi-retirement in Evanston, Illinois. Hine died of complications of a blood disorder on August 20, 2012, at the age of 76.[10]
