'Pizarnik studied philosophy at the Universidad de Buenos Aires and worked as a writer and a literary critic for several publishers and magazines. She lived in Paris between 1960 and 1964, where she translated authors such as Antonin Artaud, Henri Michaux, Aimé Césaire and Yves Bonnefoy. She also studied history of religion and French literature at the Sorbonne. Back in Buenos Aires, Pizarnik published three of her major works: ''Los trabajos y las noches'', ''Extracción de la piedra de locura'' and ''El infierno musical'' as well as a prose work titled, ''La condesa sangrienta''. In 1969 she received a Guggenheim Fellowship and later, in 1971, a Fulbright Fellowship.
On September 25, 1972, she died by suicide after ingesting an overdose of secobarbital. Her work has influenced generations of authors in Latin America. Provided by Wikipedia
