=Sidney Lanier Biography toc =
 * I was born on Febuary 3, 1842 in Macon Georgia. Once I completed grade school I went to Oglethorpe College in which I didn't have a specific major. Once I graduated I decided to represent my country by joining the Confederate Army in 1861. While I was serving my time I was captured and taken to Point Lookout in Baltimore, Maryland in 1864, where I was stricken with the deadly Tuberculosis that continued to haunt me for the rest of my life. I painted the picture of my five month imprisonment in my book __Tiger Lilies__ which I completed in three weeks. In 1867 I left the army and married Mary Day, whom I had three sons with. Throughout my life I greatly enjoyed playing the flute and I even was hired to play for the Peabody Orchestra, I was that good. In my late life I worked at John Hopkins University in Baltimore, Maryland where I mainly focused my studies on Shakespeare and those of his nature. On September 7, 1881, at the age of 39, I retreated to Lynn North, Carolina, where I was hoping to improve my curent health condition, however I died from tuberculosis. ||
