Her first national publication was in the Christian Science Monitor in 1950, just after graduating from high school. Plath kept a journal from the age of eleven and published her poems in regional magazines and newspapers. He had been strict, and both his authoritarian attitudes and his death drastically defined Plath’s relationships and her poems-most notably in her elegiac and infamous poem “ Daddy.” In 1940, when Plath was eight years old, her father died as a result of complications from diabetes. Otto taught both German and biology, with a focus on apiology, the study of bees. Her mother, Aurelia Schober, was a master’s student at Boston University when she met Plath’s father, Otto Plath, who was her professor. Sylvia Plath was born on October 27, 1932, in Boston, Massachusetts.
