About the author

Bohdan Ihor Antonych was a 20th century Ukrainian poet. In 1934 Antonych received third prize honours from the Ivan Franko Society of Writers and Journalists for his work Three Signet Rings.
Antonych was born and raised in the Lemkos village of Novytsia where his father, Vasyl, was a parish priest. In 1928 Antonych left Novytsia to study at Lviv University, where he remained until he received his degree in Slavic studies in 1933. In order to help finance his chosen career of professional writer, he occasionally worked as an editor for journals such as Dazhboh and Karby.
