Daphne Marlatt's work in oral history (Opening Doors), in two novels (Ana Historic and Taken), and in earlier poetry (Steveston in particular) has been concerned with the lives of immigrants to the West Coast. She arrived with her family as a child immigrant herself in 1951. Her early involvement with the TISH poets and their interest in Black Mountain poetics in the 1960s influenced the development of her poetic, further shaped by her subsequent interest in feminist poetry and theory, particularly the work of Nicole Brossard and Erin Moure. She was co-founding editor of the innovative prose magazine periodics and the bilingual feminist journal Tessera. In 2006, her contemporary Noh play, The Gull, received the first full cross-cultural production of a Canadian Noh play in Canada, winning the international Uchimura Naoya Prize. In 2005, she was appointed to the Order of Canada in recognition of a lifetime of service to Canadian culture. In 2009, her long poem The Given won the Dorothy Livesay Poetry Prize, and in 2012 she received the George Woodcock Lifetime Achievement Award.
