Gender: Male
Walter Rinder is an American humanist poet, philosopher, and photographer, whose books of inspirational poetry on love were popular in the 1960s and 70s. His public image was that of a free-spirited hippie artist. His books featured his photographs of nature and the male nude. When sales declined in the harder-edged culture of the 1980s, and Rinder found it difficult to get his books published, he supplemented his income by selling collectibles. In the 1990s Rinder's creativity diminished; he stated "my heart lies in the 60's and 70's". His work has been referred to by Reginald Shepherd in Orpheus in the Bronx as not "what could be called real poetry" along with verse of Rod McKuen. In a 2020 interview with an Australian podcaster, Rinder stated "I tried to write simple. I was trying to use simple words, not intellectual and all that. Because I wanted to reach the simplest of people and young people especially, because they have their whole life ahead of them. So I used simple words and I tried to do that to reach the young people who are starting out in life and building their future. So that's why, when intellectuals read my books they say 'oh how trite that writing is' - it isn't. I'm reaching the people I want to reach". Rinder is homosexual.
