   Poet. Born 1933 to academic-literary parents in Cambridge (UK). Moved   
   back to USA at age 0.5. Progressive hearing loss from 1950s made her   
   give up music for writing as a career. Returned to UK in 1960s.   
      
   Crystal quotes a couple of paragraphs, about "working to form" in   
   creating poems, and "poems come to me in musical phrases or cadences.   
   Some of my poems are probably just musical toys."
