He abandoned poetry in the 1930s for political activism and later moved to Mexico to avoid the attentions of the House Un-American Activities Committee. He returned to poetry — and to the United States — in 1958\, and received the Pulitzer Prize in 1969. Early and late in his life\, Oppen lived in San Francisco\, where he befriended many of the younger poets active in the area. \nThe George Oppen Memorial Lecture\, established at The Poetry Center in 1985\, generally addresses the work of Oppen and his contemporaries. An edition of the Selected George Oppen Memorial Lectures\, edited by Michael Cross\, is scheduled for publication in 2017 by the National Poetry Foundation\, in Orono\, Maine.
