One of the most important Australian poets of the 20th century, Francis Webb wrote his first poems as a birthday present for his grandmother at age 7, and he began publishing poems in The Bulletin at age 18.

After commencing his career, Webb was diagnosed with schizophrenia.

He died in hospital in 1973, the same year he won the Australian Literature Society Gold Medal.
