In the 1920s, when her greetings began to appear in national magazines, Helen Steiner Rice became the unofficial poet laureate of Americans seeking hope and optimism. Her poetry encouraged the American public during World War 2, and the evening of President John F. Kennedy's assassination, when it was broadcast nationally. Since her death in 1981, her books have sold nearly seven million copies, including the best-seller God's Promises from A to Z.
