Ogden Nash

Though best remembered for his light verse, Ogden Nash also achieved success as a lyricist -- with "One Touch of Venus, book by S.J. Perelman and music by Kurt Weill -- and as the writer of verses set to classical music such as Saint-Saens "Carnival of the Animals" and Prokofiev's "Peter and the Wolf." He died in 1971.

Personality Profile For Ogden Nash

Ogden Nash

The following is a personality profile of Ogden Nash based on his work.

Ogden Nash is boisterous and unpretentious.

He is intermittent, he has a hard time sticking with difficult tasks for a long period of time. He is assertive as well: he tends to speak up and take charge of situations, and he is comfortable leading groups. But, Ogden Nash is also content: he is content with his level of accomplishment and does not feel the need to set ambitious goals.

More than most people, his choices are driven by a desire for discovery.

Considers helping others to guide a large part of what he does: he thinks it is important to take care of the people around him. He is also relatively unconcerned with tradition: he cares more about making his own path than following what others have done.
