A smile is the universal welcome.
Max Eastman, born January 4, 1883, was an American poet, editor, and writer on literature, philosophy, and society, as well as a prominent political activist. Editor of the radical journals The Masses and The Liberator, Eastman published more than 20 books on topics ranging from humor and Freudian psychology to Soviet Culture. A longstanding supporter of socialism and causes such as women’s suffrage and the Harlem Renaissance, Eastman also befriended and translated works by Leon Trotsky. In later life, however, he questioned these beliefs, becoming a proponent of free markets economics and an anti-Communist.
