After graduating from Harvard University, he became a published writer in his early twenties. From that point to the present, Kunitz's poetry has won praise from all circles as being profound and well-written—he continues to write and publish work as of 2005 at the age of 100. Many believe his poetry's symbolism is influenced significantly by the work of Carl Jung. Kunitz has himself been an influence on many 20th century poets, including James Wright.
